There was a time when we believed technology would simplify our lives, and allow us more leisure time. In fact, technology has only increased the pace of our lives. In today's workplace, most employees are working harder and keeping longer hours than they were five years ago. It's no wonder that job burnout and stress overload are on the rise.

Stress takes its toll in job dissatisfaction; resulting in decreased efficiency, lower morale, greater employee turnover and higher levels of absenteeism due to poor health. Ultimately, it can even kill. But with the proper skills, stress can be dramatically reduced.

NCTI's Real Colors®, Real Stress workshop allows participants to identify and address the stressors in their workplace, and learn key coping skills.
