According to Bogatin Jacob such position when productivity is on the highest level possible, and stress - on the lowest level will be ideal. To reach it, executives and other employees of the organisation should learn how to consult specialists about stress problems. How to operate, to raise productivity and to lower the stress level?
The people suffering from excessive stress on work, can try to apply the following methods.
1. Develop system of priorities at work. Bogatin Jacob is sure that everyone should estimate the work as follows: "should make today", "make later this week" and " make, when there will be time".
2. Learn to speak "is not present", when you will reach a limit after which you cannot incur more work any more. Explain to the chief that he should understand the importance of the task. Then describe concrete priority tasks over which now work. If he insists on performance of the new task, ask him to listen to you first and then tell him you should postpone that kind of work before the end of the new task.
3. Adjust especially effective and reliable relations with your chief. Understand his problems and help him to understand yours. Make your chief learn how to respect your priorities, your workload and to give the proved commissions.
4. Bogatin Jacob thinks that this will be nice if you are able to disagree with your head or someone who starts to expose inconsistent requirements (the conflict of roles). Explain, that these requirements pull you in opposite directions. Ask to arrange a meeting with all the interested parties to find out a solution. Bogatin Jacob as a wise specialist stresses that you must not take an accusatory-aggressive position; simply explain, what concrete problems create for you inconsistent requirements.
