Wondered how to effectively manage your energy in order to be productive, motivated and happy? Wanted some practical tips that you can use while you are at work? Wanted to step off the treadmill and refocus?

Why should you Attend:We are most often tired out and worn out. Many of us report that we do not do anything to deal with our stress, mostly because we have very little energy left at the end of the day.

Success in our high-pressure HR world hinges not just on our knowledge, but also on our ability to recover and remain energized. The key is to understand our natural rhythms and work with them rather than against them in building our resiliency.

You can learn how to bounce. The way in which we work can cause exhaustion and burnout. For many people, every day stress can build to a level that seems too difficult to handle and can leave us feeling depleted. These reactions can leave us exposed to a variety of illnesses and injuries or can take us away from our life goals.
