Briefly Discuss The Situational Demands.

Situational demands:Stress emerges out of expectations, situational expectations, cultural expectations, organizational expectations, and family expectations all these expectations make you work. If you work according to the situation there should be no stress. Suppose if a person from Pakistani culture travels to Europe, there are different expectations of that society for you to act in a particular way. Your training, potential, socialization is from your Pakistani culture but the demands of the immigrant society are different.

You do not know the every day routines and norms of that society and the demands and expectations of that society are different Such a situation can even have another aspect let's say if a person is well adjusted in an organization, is performing well, knows the hierarchy of commands etc but if he is transferred to another company or if he changes his job he may not fit in as the expectations of that organization may be different but you are trained in different organizations. What is the reason that you are good in one organization but miss fit in the other organization? Disconnect or dissonance between the personality and expectations of that organization, results into some sort of stress.

If you learn and adjust quickly to the new environment the stress is chanalized. Then it is positive stress. Your own expectations are a main cause of stress. They give pressure to you and if your expectations are too high to achieve those success and you don't have the sources. Your expectations should be according to your capabilities. To sum up this discussion it is stated that the greater the capacity of an individual, lesser are the chances of the stress.
