Burnout & engagement - introduction to a useful framework

\\\\\ Episode 100! \\\\\

Delighted to reach this podcasting milestone, thank you to everybody who has listened, subscribed or shared the show, and especially to my incredible guests from whom I've learned so much over the last couple of years.

Today's episode is an introduction to the topic of burnout which, it turns out, is best prevented by creating more engagement.

That's according to the work of Christina Maslach, one of the world's leading authorities on the subject of burnout.

I share the framework she has developed over 30 years of research, including the 3 Dimensions of burnout and the 6 Predictors.

When I'm facilitating sessions with senior leaders and managers on the subject of burnout and engagement, this is the framework I use and it's incredibly useful on an individual level to understand some of the elements that are important for us to feel engaged with the work that we do.

[On that note, quick plug: I work with teams within corporate organisations to deliver wellbeing and performance programs, covering areas such as physical and mental wellbeing, resilience, stress, mindset & motivation and of course burnout and engagement.

If you have a team and want to find out more about how I support my clients, get in touch via email - george@bygeorgeanderson.com or my LinkedIn profile. ]

===============================

Ultimately, the responsibility for our own wellbeing is shared between us as individuals and the leaders who shape the environment in which we work.

Whilst we have a high degree of control about how take care of ourselves and manage our enegy through the day, the culture we operate in has a significant influence as well.
