Ever felt burned out? Like you've got nothing more to give?

Increasing numbers of workers find that they reach a point where their energy and motivation levels plummet, and they just can't turn up at work like they used to. This phenomenon has a name: burnout.

But what actually is burnout and where does it come from?

In this episode of Pain Points, Jonathan and the team put burnout under the microscope – finding out what it really means, how we can avoid it, and what to do when it overwhelms us.

Talking points include:

  • What is burnout?
  • What are the warning signs?
  • What's the impact, on individuals and teams?
  • What can we do to avoid burnout – for ourselves, and to help the people we manage and mix with at work?
