Do Stress and Pressure in the Workplace Result in Executive Loneliness? with Nick Jonsson Normalize The Conversation

Have you ever experienced an overwhelming feeling of stress and pressure at work? You are not alone! Work is commonplace for people to experience extreme levels of stress, often presenting itself through negative changes in job performance, productivity, work engagement, communication, and daily functioning. But stress and pressure within the workplace do not have to negatively impact your life. Welcome to Normalize The Conversation, your host Francesca Reicherter is joined by Nick Jonnson. Nick was born in Sweden and has spent the last 20 years living and working in Southeast Asia and has now relocated to Singapore about 5 years ago. He had a long corporate career as a managing director, but now his life has changed. After experiencing feelings of isolation and stress rising from extreme levels of pressure and a lack of tools to alleviate the stress, he has left the corporate world and is now organizing confidential peer groups for senior executives and business owners to create a safe space outside of the workplace for individuals to discuss stress, pressure, and other work-related challenges. Join us as we uncover the influence of stress and pressure in the workplace on one’s mental health and what we can do to reduce the negative impact. — Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/normalizetheconversation/support
