Abstract: Work-related stress is a common issue among civil servant administrator officials due to complex job demands, leadership responsibilities, and public service obligations. This community service program aimed to enhance participants’ soft skills, particularly stress mindset and to train more adaptive stress responses through a metacognitive-based Rethink training. The program was conducted over four days in two batches, involving 50 administrator officials in collaboration with the Regional Civil Service and Human Resource Development Agency (BKPSDM). Evaluation methods included observation, reflective worksheets, and pre–post assessment of stress mindset. The results showed that 46 of 50 participants (92%) demonstrated improved understanding of work-related stress. Quantitative evaluation based on available pretest–posttest data indicated that 13 of 15 participants (86.7%) experienced a shift in stress mindset from perceiving stress as debilitating to viewing it as a challenge that facilitates growth (enhanching). Qualitative evaluation revealed that all 15 participants who completed the Rethink worksheets (100%) were able to construct new meanings of stress and formulate more adaptive work-related actions. This training contributes to strengthening administrative officials’ soft skills in managing work-related stress more productively.
