They’re human, they’re common, and they’re normal - providing we don’t allow them to dominate or get profoundly worse, or I suppose be prolonged.” “I think everybody has been touched in some way by burnout across the pandemic, across the last 18 months, whether it’s somebody you know, your spouse, or you, or somebody within your team.”Links To Things Mentioned In The Podcast:The 12 Stages of Burnout resource: https://www.bodyshotperformance.com/resource/the-12-stages-of-burnout/ Leanne’s TEDx talk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-SLP1BF7KBQ Take our Wellbeing at Work Scorecard and see how your organisations wellbeing strategy scores against 4 key areas of wellbeing.
