Objectives

As a result of the course students will be able to recognize signs of stress and mental states that make it difficult to successfully perform a workplace role, and based on this, if necessary, refer the client to the appropriate specialist. They learn about the symptoms of high levels of stress and the concepts and types of personality disorders, which makes them more effective in managing coaching relationships with a broader range of clients. They will be able to implement primary and secondary interventions as part of workplace mental health development programs. They can identify managerial and employee behaviours that create a dysfunctional or toxic workplace atmosphere and act responsibly when they encounter this phenomenon.
