Emotional Labour in Equestrian Coaching – Webinar

New Webinar on 29 April at 7.00pm-8.00pm

Emotional Labour is the ‘work’ we carry out when managing our feelings, be that under or over playing an emotion, suppressing, or changing an emotion within a work role. The management of our own emotions and those of other people’s is necessary in many areas of life and becomes emotional labour when performed within a work setting. Equestrian sport as a whole carries a huge emotional commitment and investment and whilst the rewards can be great, we must equally be mindful of the potential costs and safeguard against this.
