Stress Management and Wellbeing for Public Leaders
A one-credit, eight-week course meeting on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
Resilience and Wellbeing for Public Leaders is a research-informed, psychoeducational resiliency course that integrates evidence-based key concepts taken from wellness coaching, cognitive behavioral approaches, and positive psychology to create a dynamic, experiential learning opportunity for personal growth and development. Students will support and learn from one another through structured peer-mentorship workgroups.
By the end of this course, you should be able to:
- Set personal SMART goals based on the dimensions of wellness.
- Practice positive self-talk, rephrasing and reframing, to experience how this effects their personal stress experience.
- Identify at least three to five different sources of stress applying the socioecological model.
- Investigate at least three realistic coping strategies to be used when facing challenges in everyday life.
- Understand the interrelationship of the dimensions of wellness and the impact on their personal stress.
- Identify at least three supportive resources available to assist them in increasing their coping success.
