Burnout

Leaders do an increasing amount of work helping employees deal with stress and change. But the burden is unevenly distributed between men and women.

Skillful leaders don’t push their teams to bounce back faster. They create systems where bouncing back isn’t constantly required.

The solution to burnout isn’t rest or a couple of days off. Instead, people need different workplace conditions — and a new approach to personal growth.

OpenAI has scheduled a rare company-wide shutdown next week to give its staff a much-needed break after several intense months of 80-hour workweeks, WIRED reported.

Workforce data highlights the need to understand burnout, measure its dimensions, and identify actions for managers and employees to mitigate its effects.
