Presentation Summary

Ignite the Burned Out: How Leadership Inspires the Disengaged

Burnout is on the rise.

Employees feel unappreciated, stagnant, and stuck, which decreases productivity, attitude, and performance. Burnout is an organizational and leadership issue affecting morale and bottom-line results.

Research shows even the “best place to work for” Google has 53% burnout. How much is burnout really costing you?

Burnout is your #1 business expense. Organizations spend $190 billion more in healthcare costs due to burnout. That doesn’t account for the decrease in performance, productivity, motivation, or morale or the increase in turnover, errors, or safety issues that burnout is costing your organization; that’s solely the increase due to healthcare costs alone.

People aren’t being proactive with stress and burnout, and once it hits, they are trying to dig themselves out of it, not really knowing how or what will work. This creates a never-ending cycle of stress, pressure, health issues, safety issues, and the desperate need to escape.

Burnout will not go away on its own. Extinguishing burnout begins with your leaders.

Using her burnout research, Jessica shares how organizations can proactively anticipate burnout, teams can stop burnout from spreading to other work and life areas, and how leaders can ignite, motivate, and empower employees to have more fun and get more done faster without being burned out.

It’s time to contain it before it continues to spreads.
