    How to Regain Your Composure in Stressful Situations #work #job #workfromhome

    How to Regain Your Composure in Stressful Situations #work #job #workfromhome 12 Apr 2024 --- In stressful situations, it can be hard to self-regulate our feelings. Self-regulation is the ability to understand and manage our physical, emotional, and mental reactions so that we can perform and behave more skillfully under stress. Regaining our composure begins with awareness. When you feel ourselves slipping into a spiral of stress, shut the laptop and do something enjoyable, like taking a walk outside. This gives us a chance to be present, breathe, and reenter work with a calmer mindset. — Adapted from, “How to Regain Your Composure in Stressful Situations”, by Anke Thiele.

    How to Lead and Develop Skills in the Age of AI

    How to Lead and Reskill in the Age of AI 25 Aug 2023 --- How will AI affect businesses and employees? It’s the million-dollar question, and according to Harvard Business School’s Raffaella Sadun, the answer will depend on how well an organization connects the new technologies to both a broad corporate vision and individual employee growth. One without the other is a recipe for job elimination and fewer new opportunities for all. Luckily, she points out, we are early in our AI journey, and nothing is predetermined. Smart leaders don’t need to understand every technicality of AI. But they do need to identify the best use cases for their specific business and communicate a clear strategy for reskilling their teams. For this episode of our video series “The New World of Work”, HBR editor in chief Adi Ignatius sat down with Sadun, who wrote the HBR article, “Reskilling in the Age of AI” (https://hbr.org/2023/09/reskilling-in-the-age-of-ai), to discuss: • How leaders should use GenAI to augment their own decision making, without entrusting it to make the actual decisions. • Even in the age of AI, the top management skills will be a mixture of technical (“hard”) and social (“soft”) skills. Those who excel will comprehend their organization’s complexity while communicating a clear vision to all employees. • Handling change management when everyone is uncertain about the future and regular employees are especially fearful. This interview part of a series called “The New World of Work,” which explores how top-tier executives see the future and how their companies are trying to set themselves up for success. Each week, Adi will interview a leader on LinkedIn Live — and then share an inside look at those conversations and solicit questions for future discussions in a newsletter just for HBR subscribers.

    What Difficult Emotions Are Trying to Tell You | Christine vs. the Workplace

    What Difficult Emotions Are Trying to Tell You | Christine vs. Work 1 May 2020 --- 𝙎𝙪𝙗𝙨𝙘𝙧𝙞𝙗𝙚 𝙩𝙤 𝘼𝙨𝙘𝙚𝙣𝙙 𝙩𝙤𝙙𝙖𝙮! ✨ https://www.youtube.com/c/HBRAscend ✨ Emotions are running raw during the pandemic. How should we manage our difficult feelings, especially at work? Weeks of social distancing have fueled a collective emotional rollercoaster of anxiety, stress, frustration, and fear. How can we better manage our emotions as individuals? How emotionally vulnerable can—or should—we be at work? Especially during this crisis, resilient and compassionate emotional intelligence with our colleagues is more essential than ever. Susan David, a Harvard Medical School psychologist and author of “Emotional Agility”, offers a helpful approach on how to manage difficult emotions—in life and at work—during this challenging time. Tips for managing difficult emotions: 1. Permit yourself to experience the emotion—it’s a normal response. Openly recognize what you’re feeling, practice “gentle acceptance” that it’s happening, and then respond to that emotion with an open attitude. Let go of what you cannot control. 2. Extend compassion to yourself and to others. Be patient and try to understand the full reality of the situation. Be kind, loving, and courageous. 3. Recognize that difficult emotions are clear signposts to your beliefs and values. Interpret your feelings, even if it’s uncomfortable, to pinpoint what’s most important for you at this time.
