You’re driving home from your most recent event.

Thinking.

Pondering.

Analyzing.

Those poor part-timers looked petrified by the rush of people during the lightning storm.

You should’ve gone over what exactly to do during a severe weather incident.

Tonight was a little too chaotic for your taste. What to do, what to do?

What do you do?

When was the last time you had similar thoughts running through your mind after an event?

It must be troubling to experience this on a regular basis knowing there’s more to come.

You use analytics to better respond to incidents. But, how do you train your employees to better respond to all these incidents you’re aware of?

You look into the court stands.

It is Saturday, July 9^th, and you’ve won the 2016 Wimbledon final. You’re flushed from fatigue and overtaken with excitement.

You’ve marked another notch on your racket. Today is number 22. Yes, your 22^nd Grand Slam.

It’s the record-tying win that ties you with Steffi Graf for obtaining the most major championships in the Open era.

Your latest and greatest achievement comes with the conclusion of the 139^th year of Wimbledon, notably the world’s oldest tennis completion.

You’re proud. You’re exhausted. But, you’re thirsty for more.

Why?

You’re Serena Williams.

Keep reading, because in today’s article we’re going to share how a maintenance solution can help you tackle these five areas.

A large majority of issues facility managers deal with are the result of workplace stress.

From lack-of-productivity issues, issues caused by lack-of-performance, to staff absences and turnover…it all leads back to stress in the workplace.

But, how do facility managers get rid of workplace stress?

The question that needs to be asked is: How can you, as a professional facility manager, manage it so your staff can do their job better?

Think about your last event.

Were there a few unexpected incidents your team could have been better prepared for?

When was the last time you went over exactly what to do during a severe weather situation? Hire any new part-time staff since then? Do they have an understanding on your eight different touchpoints for superior customer service? Is your team executing consistently?

Whatever your concerns, your team probably could’ve been more prepared for your last event.

What do you think? What do you do?
