Annotation: Burnout and occupational stress are significant factors that determine a decrease in staff efficiency, turnover, and an increase in the cost of working with people. These factors are especially relevant for employees who work in the stock market and face rapid changes and a high level of responsibility on a daily basis. The most commonly used methods of dealing with burnout (corporate events, sports events, online training) do not always directly affect the condition of employees and have no proven effectiveness. The Brain Health Days project at the Investment Company is aimed at developing the skills of neuroregulation among employees to overcome stressful conditions. The duration of the project is 1.5 months, the level of staff involvement is 39%. Content of the program: educational lectures on the skills of working with one's condition from neurologists, biofeedback training (neurofeedback for the transition from beta to alpha rhythm), online tests, mailing lists. Assessment: Maslach and TMAS tests before/after. Results: Participants noted the usefulness (8/10); after 3 sessions, the alpha rhythm increased from 5 % to 78 % of the training time, and the power increased to 50–70 %; reduced tension by 17 %, increased calmness by 28 %, confidence by 21 %; improved concentration. The program demonstrates the effectiveness of barefoot training to overcome stress.
Keywords: personnel management, burnout, occupational stress, neurotechnology, biofeedback, neurofeedback, corporate health, cognitive reboot, neurological prevention.
