Why Your Stress Initiative Might Be Making Things Worse
April 30, 2026 10:00 AM Europe/Copenhagen
Stress should not be reduced to a question of high workload alone.
It is a multifaceted issue with different causes and consequences. When leaders address the wrong causes, initiatives may miss the mark and in some cases even add more pressure instead of reducing it.
In this webinar, Ennova shares insights from panel survey data, experience from real company cases, and findings from the Ennova Data Warehouse to show how different types of stress can affect organizations and how they relate to employee engagement.
Why this webinar matters
Most organizations know stress is something they need to take seriously.
What is harder is understanding what sits behind it.
Because stress is not one single issue. In one part of the organization, it may be linked to workload. In another, it may be tied to uncertainty, lack of meaning, low clarity, or something else entirely. That is where many initiatives lose effect. The intention is good, but the response does not match the cause.
This webinar is designed to help HR professionals build a broader understanding of stress and get inspiration for how to respond more thoughtfully when it appears in an organization.

FAQ
Is this webinar only about workload?
No. Workload is part of the picture, but not the whole picture. The webinar is built around the idea that stress can have different causes, and that this matters when deciding how to respond.
Will the webinar be practical?
Yes. The session combines data-based insights with practical examples from organizational reality, so the topic becomes easier to work with in practice.
Is this relevant if we aldready run employee surveys?
Yes. This webinar is especially relevant if you already collect employee feedback and want a better way to understand what stress signals may point to.
Will I get a simple solution I can apply straight away?
The webinar is not about one fixed solution. It is about giving you a broader understanding of stress and useful inspiration for how to approach it more effectively in your own context.
Stress is rarely one-dimensional. Your response should not be either.
