Beat Stress at Work : How to Balance Your Ambition with Your Anxiety

In his 30-year professional career, Mark Simmonds has worked as a management trainer, running learning programmes in innovation and creativity across the globe for corporate giants like Unilever, GlaxoSmithKline, Tesco, Philips, HSBC and the Red Cross. Back in 2001, he suffered from increasing levels of stress and anxiety, leading to a nervous breakdown and a failed attempt (luckily) on his own life. Mark's career and personal experiences have given him the perfect insight into the destructive effect that stress can have in the workplace, and a unique ability to shed light on how to build resilience and enjoy a fulfilling career in spite of his mental health struggles.
