This course contains the use of artificial intelligence.

You have already tried sleeping more, taking the weekend properly and putting your phone in another room. It helped for a week. Here are 220 tools to fix the causes: 126 ready-to-use question lists, procedures, templates and checklists, 49 models and methods, 41 services shown on screen and 4 working files.

Open a lecture, take the assessment, and see where your stress actually comes from.

Why rest is not enough

Stress management is usually taught as personal recovery: sleep, sport, breathing. The workload, the unclear priorities, the work nobody else does and the job that does not fit stay the same, so the stress returns on Monday.

What changes after this course

You see where your hours go, protect focus, hand work over, understand your own reactions and decide whether the job itself fits. Managers learn to diagnose burnout in their teams and act on it.

Who is teaching

I am Mike, the #1 HR instructor on Udemy, with 1,800,000+ course enrollments from 170,000 students, and the author of about 200 books on Amazon. I built the people system at Preply as it became a unicorn and worked at Wargaming, iDeals and Alfa-Bank across 20 years in HR. I hold PHRi, SHRM-CP and HCI sHRBP certifications and represent HRCI in Eastern Europe.

In the first months of the war many people worked remotely not by choice, and they were under enormous stress. HR teams asked me what to do, and one of my first recommendations was a weekly questionnaire to learn how people were and to see the level of stress, so the company could react quickly.
