Positive and effective communication is important in the workplace because it helps relay information, build relationships, establish goals, and help with team building. 

To better handle stress and pressure at home and at work we can do things like

• Prioritize our health - Taking care of your personal health is important to live but also important because it's one less thing you need to stress about with being unhealthy.
• Plan your workload - Consider how much work you have to do, the time you have to do it, and leave extra time for unexpected situations.
• Ask for help - Whether you are overwhelmed or you just need assistance with what you're battling don't be afraid to ask for help.

As we are trying to manage workplace challenges, we need to keep some key things in mind. Staying calm and fully analyzing the situation in front of us before we just blindly react. Making sure we can effectively define whatever challenge or problem we are facing will help us know what goals we need to set or what steps we need to take to not only manage these challenges but overcome them positively.
