Workplace Evolution, Common Sense for Uncommon Times, Best Books 2009 finalist by co-founder, Gayle Gregory. We all know that our world has changed dramatically over the past two years.

A Competitive Advantage for our Stress-filled Times By Anthony Jensen, MD, Medical Director, Mental Health Systems and Gayle Gregory, co-founder of Bully Free Living published in San Diego Chamber of Commerce Regional newsletter.

Occupational pressures and fears are far and away the leading source of stress for American adults, and these have steadily increased over the past few decades. Self-help articles abound, full of quick fixes, tips and techniques, yet workplace stress, rather than waning, is on the rise.
