Stressonhold tests prove the link between Stress and Performance in the Contact Centre.

During recent trials at a Contact Centre in the North of England, Stressonhold results proved the link between stress levels and sales performance.

The Contact Centre Manager stated “ We always suspected that poor performance might be linked to stress levels but now we can prove it. The results show that Advisors performing at optimum levels are out selling those on low or high stress levels….. ”

“Stress is not a simple condition. There is no single cause…..” Professor Peter Kinderman, Professor of Clinical Psychology, Dept of Mental Health and Well-Being, University of Liverpool. “… it’s not possible to avoid all potential traumas, there are many things we can do to protect our mental health. We can keep ourselves fit and, particularly, active; keeping our bodies and brains healthy. We can maintain our close personal relationships – these can be hugely supportive in difficult times. And we can try to make sure we respond in the most healthy way to any stressful events.”
