Prevent mental overload

Training

Create new healthy routines for greater professional and personal efficiency

‍Mental load or cognitive load is "the cost of processing information, for an individual, in a given task and context." Cognitive load is natural: it exists as soon as we engage our cognitive abilities, and is not inherently bad. It's regular "cognitive overload" that can be harmful.

Mental overload occurs when :

  • an employee has to process more information than his or her working memory can cope with,
  • multitasking, 
  • the task is too complex,
  • the physical or digital work environment is too stimulating, 
  • fatigue, stress or lack of motivation force him to increase the effort required to complete a task. 

 Cognitive overload has harmful consequences for the employee, such as increasing the risk of error, difficulty in memorizing information, planning actions and managing emotions.

Our support is based on a pragmatic approach. Following a review of the company's objectives and expectations, and the needs of its employees, a customized support program is developed by the coach-trainer.

Training involves four stages: awareness, understanding of 'automatic' behavioral programs, acquisition of tools and techniques to regain personal and organizational efficiency, coaching to promote the integration of these tools and create new, healthy routines. To prevent mental overload, the trainer-coach works with employees on 4 levels: self, environment, tasks and interactions.
