THE APEX PROGRAMME (Achieving Personal Excellence)
Every successful corporate house worth its salt knows the importance of maintaining and upgrading facilities and equipment to obtain optimum perfomance levels. Many companies, however, fail to give an equal amount of attention to their most precious resources - their employees. With increased competition and pressure to do things cheaper, better and faster, the quality of an employees is often overlooked. When problems of stress and conflict in the workplace are not remedied employees go frustrated or feel overwhelmed. This leads to problems like greater absenteeism, decreased motivation, limited creativity and a deterioration in morale. Unless employees are centred and balanced, a company's economic growth and true potential cannot be fully realised. One often hears that the the IQ (Intelligence Quotient) is a measure of success. Yet, in the workplace, its not just about how intelligent one is, but also about how well one handles the big 'S', STRESS. Though stress is considered to be a necessary occupational hazard, this does not have to be the case - as corporate houses the world over are discovering through the APEX programme. A highly specialised, practical and effective training programme, it presents a paradigm shift, from 'working hard' to 'working smart'. It provides employees with solution to striking a balance between meeting the demands of one's personal life and professional commitments. It strengthens managers and employees, enabling them to experience unshakable calm and inner clarity in the face of any business challenge or crisis. Several companies report a significant increase in their employees' level of responsibility and commitment, post their participation in the APEX, and these translate into considerable larger profit.
