"A year from now you will wish you had started today." ~ Karen Lamb

Even though this workshop is not only for management staff it is interesting to note that a recent survey has shown South African management to be of the most stressed in the world.

The reason for that is this is apparently that managers are held responsible for outcomes without being granted the authority with which to ensure the outcomes. Either due to organisational or legal constraints.

Essentially it is true to say that we live in one of the most challenging countries not only because of our political climate but also because we are not a homogenous culture. This is truly a country of individuals. All of these factors add stress.
