Episode Description

The buzz: Burnout. In this era of hyper-connectivity and 24/7 global demands on your workforce, employee burnout is a key contributor to the lack of engagement and loss of productivity all too prevalent in the workplace. If always-on is the nemesis of commitment and productivity, it’s time to take a closer look at your company culture. Burnout is insidious; it can spread from employee to employee, department to department across your organization. Take heart. Your management team and individual employees can banish burnout. Ready to learn how? The experts speak. Allison Ellis, Portland State University: “Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being, and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.” (World Health Organization) Stacey Perrin, SAP: “It’s better to burn out, than to fade away.” (lyrics from My My, Hey Hey – Out of the Blue, Neil Young, Def Leppard). Join us for How to Prevent Burnout in the Age of Always-On.
