Abstract:
|
In the ever-evolving landscape of higher education, institutions have pivotal roles in guiding students through their academic journeys while sustaining their professional responsibilities. As institutions experience constant changes such as policy updates, uncertainty of research funding, technological advancements, increasing enrollment, unchanged or decreased resources, must develop the ability to adapt while maintaining their well-being. These professionals' rising exigence, combined with emotional investment in student success, can lead to substantial stress. To navigate these challenges effectively, higher education professionals must first comprehend the sources of their stress and distinguish its impact on their mental and emotional well-being. By applying effective stress management techniques such as cognitive behavioral therapy, time management, mindfulness, and self-care, the professionals can augment their resilience and maintain a sense of balance. Furthermore, prioritizing adaptability and well-being, these professionals can continue to give valuable support to students while nurturing their professional development and fulfilment. |
