Firstly, I think it's important to understand the 'stress'. Is this personal or the team? If it's personal then is it stress or worry? Stress requires more than just a plan, it needs the boost of the emotional bank balance... discussions / reflection/ coping mechanisms. If it's worry, then a good chat & some reflection time will help. If it's the team, then they're looking for leadership, they want to know everything will be OK or what their role is & it's importance to deliver the plan. What is causing the uncertainty, are these factors outside or inside your control? Either personal or team stress, have a recovery plan, review it regularly, celebrate and recognise the small wins, adjust where required and overall..... stick together.

Very important in the situation is to keep your calm, especially during low sales periods or periods of underachievement or even cost-cutting situations.

One should take special care of oneself by the following methods: - Reading books that focus on positivity. - Taking regular walks or run. - Meeting friends and ensuring not to discuss situations related to work stress or any stressful situations.
