Abstract
In the fast-paced and demanding environment of the Information Technology (IT) sector, stress management has become a critical concern for employees and organizations alike. This study explores the various stressors faced by IT professionals, including tight deadlines, high workload, and the pressure to adapt to rapid technological changes. We examine the impact of stress on both employee well-being and organizational productivity. Through a mixed- methods approach, including surveys and interviews, we identify effective stress management strategies employed by successful IT teams, such as time management techniques, mindfulness practices, and supportive workplace cultures. Our findings highlight the importance of proactive stress management initiatives in enhancing job satisfaction, reducing burnout, and improving overall performance. Recommendations for organizations to implement comprehensive wellness programs are provided, aiming to foster a healthier, more resilient workforce in the IT industry.
