Five tips to help you avoid burnout |
Five tips to help you avoid burnout |
The modern workplace can be a challenging environment for a manager like you. And the pressure to meet targets, lead your team and make strategic decisions can take its toll on your wellbeing, leaving you exhausted, unmotivated and disengaged. This is a growing concern for organizations, with the percentage of desk workers reporting that they felt burned out rising to 40% in 2022.*
Our resources will help you to combat the effects of burnout and promote a positive work environment for yourself and your team. Take a look at our tips below. |
What does your work mean to you? How does it help others? Rediscovering your purpose can provide you with direction and give you a sense of accomplishment. Find your purpose here. |

Gaining autonomy in your role enables you to manage your time and tasks effectively. Use To-Do Lists and Action Programs to bring order to your workload. |
|

3. Rationalize your workload |
When things "don't let up" it can make you feel demoralized and stressed. Do a Job Analysis to clarify what's expected of you and what isn't. This will help you to prioritize what tasks are important, and what can be delegated or even postponed. |
|
|
Exercise can help you to "switch off" fully from work and other stressors. It can also improve your wellbeing and enable you to get a better night's sleep. Discover how to get more exercise. |

5. Learn to manage stress |
