Burnout

We tackle the critical issue of burnout and how leaders can identify, prevent, and manage it effectively within their teams. We begin by exploring the difference between good stress, which can be motivating, and bad stress, which can lead to burnout. The conversation delves into how stress can sometimes drive individuals to be more diligent and focused, often without realizing they're running low on energy until it’s too late.

We discuss the importance of managing stress not only for yourself but also for your team, emphasizing the need to respect the sanctity of time away from work. The episode also covers practical approaches for leaders who are concerned about an employee's well-being and how to address those concerns thoughtfully and effectively.

Finally, we highlight the importance of having a solid plan in place for stress management, including regular check-ins with your team, being candid about the need for breaks, and ensuring that both you and your team remain energized and engaged. Remember, what’s good for your team is also good for your mission and your customers.
