Many of us feel stressed by the multitude of tasks and information in our environment and look for solutions that would develop our specialist competencies. But does it help to lower the level of stress? The answer to that problem is investing in developing our soft skills, e.g. stress management and assertiveness. This kind of trainings is organized, together with the specialist trainings as a part of a few large projects co-financed by the Program Operacyjny Wiedza Edukacja Rozw\u00f3j (Knowledge Education<br \/>\nDevelopment Operation Programme). For the University of Silesia employees in Katowice, participation in the trainings is free. The key aspect in making use of the training is transferring the experiences from the training into everyday life. The last day of the training is an excellent opportunity to plan the change, which can be on the next day.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\n<\/div>\r\n                    <\/div>\r\n                <\/div>[\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;5\/12&#8243;][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;content-desktop&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-155336\" src=\"https:\/\/us.edu.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/fotografie\/kariera-na-U\u015a\/Marek-Dr\u0105g.png\" alt=\"Marek Dr\u0105g\" width=\"50%\" height=\"auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/us.edu.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/fotografie\/kariera-na-U\u015a\/Marek-Dr\u0105g.png 495w, https:\/\/us.edu.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/fotografie\/kariera-na-U\u015a\/Marek-Dr\u0105g-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 495px) 100vw, 495px\" \/><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #808080; font-size: small;\"><em>Photo: private archive<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]\r\n                <div class=\"text-modules\">\r\n                    <div class=\"container\">\r\n                        \r\n                        <div class=\"text-modules__content\"><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: small; padding-left: 20px; padding-right: 20px;\"><strong>Marek Dr\u0105g<\/strong> \u2013 HR Practitioner, Psychologist, Trainings instructor.<br \/>\nA practitioner with a many-year experience in managerial skills consulting and development, relationship management, and soft skills development.

In 2018 I also joined the badminton section of the University Sports Association. Honestly, I wouldn\u2019t have thought this sport was so demanding back then. It requires strength, speed, reflex and precision. However, the time and effort invested in this sport brings incredible satisfaction derived from every newly-learned game element and, above all, from every scored point.<\/p>\n<p>But that is not all. I think that the best reward connected with my passion for badminton are the people I have met thanks to badminton \u2013 in our badminton section of the University Sports Association, at the Silesian Badminton Championship, or at the Polish Academic Badminton Championship. I have met many great Badminton fans. It\u2019s a pleasure to play (and often lose) with the much younger and much older people. Badminton is a discipline with the potential to bring different generations together. It\u2019s worth giving it a try!<\/p>\n<p>\n<\/div>\r\n                    <\/div>\r\n                <\/div>[\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;5\/12&#8243;][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;content-desktop&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-155335\" src=\"https:\/\/us.edu.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/fotografie\/kariera-na-U\u015a\/Jacek-Nowak.png\" alt=\"Jacek Nowak\" width=\"50%\" height=\"auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/us.edu.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/fotografie\/kariera-na-U\u015a\/Jacek-Nowak.png 495w, https:\/\/us.edu.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/fotografie\/kariera-na-U\u015a\/Jacek-Nowak-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 495px) 100vw, 495px\" \/><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #808080; font-size: small;\"><em>Photo: private archive<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]\r\n                <div class=\"text-modules\">\r\n                    <div class=\"container\">\r\n                        \r\n                        <div class=\"text-modules__content\"><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: small; padding-left: 20px; padding-right: 20px;\"><strong>Jacek Nowak<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 born in 1984.
