Our experience of the past couple of years has led to a re-assessing of priorities. Work, for many, is about far more than just their salary. Recent global research found that 40% of those surveyed stated burnout as the reason they left their job last year.
Searches for symptoms of burnout are increasing year on year. Those organisations who train managers and teams to help spot signs and triggers, reduce stigma and put preventions in place, are increasingly considered attractive places to work.
Our 3-hour Managing Burnout course is suitable for anyone in the workplace and can be delivered live online to groups of employees anywhere. The course explores the causes and effects of burnout and provides positive, practical actions to address the condition, based on the latest scientific evidence.
In the infographic below, trainer Michelle Spirit has provided a taster of one aspect of the course by putting together some suggestions to help restore energy and introducing, or reminding us, of the WOOP mental strategy.
