At Work with The Ready

137. Are You There, Burnout? It’s Us, Everybody

Listen Later

Hey, how ya feeling? Exhausted? Stressed? Like a rubber band that’s finally snapped? Same. These days, the burnout paradigm seems to have shifted from the micro to the macro: Individual burnout has ballooned into collective burnout—into an overwhelming sense of being out of control and out of moves to help make things right. So, what can we do with those feelings?

In today’s episode of Brave New Work, Aaron Dignan and Rodney Evans talk about:

  • What the underlying drivers of collective burnout are
  • How it’s showing up inside workplaces and teams (including at The Ready)
  • How we can start to tackle burnout as a society-wide challenge
  • What org design can do to address the root of the problem
  • How we’re taking care of ourselves and each other during a time of non-stop tumult
