Stress is defined as a feeling experienced when a person perceives
that demands exceed the personal and social resources the
individual is able to mobilize. It can occur due to environmental
issues, such as a looming work deadline, or psychological, for
example, persistent worry about familial problems. While the acute
response to life-threatening circumstances can be life-saving,
research reveals that the body's stress response is largely similar
when it reacts to less threatening but chronically present
stressors such as work overload, deadline pressures and family
conflicts. It is proffered that chronic activation of stress
response in the body can lead to several pathological changes such
as elevated blood pressure, clogging of blood vessels, anxiety,
depression, and addiction. Organizational Stress Around the World:
Research and Practice aims to present a sound theoretical and
empirical basis for understanding the evolving and changing nature
of stress in contemporary organizations. It presents research that
expands theory and practice by addressing real-world issues, across
cultures and by providing multiple perspectives on organizational
stress and research relevant to different occupational settings and
cultures. Personal, occupational, organizational, and societal
issues relevant to stress identification along with management
techniques/approach to confront stress and its associated problems
at individual and organizational level are also explored. It will
be of value to researchers, academics, practitioners, and students
interested in stress management research.
