What is Rich's definition of burnout?

Burnout is where you're there, but you're not there. You're at work in body

but not in mind.

Here are a few of the things you'll hear about in this episode:

* How a company that focuses on joy works

* How to avoid the cycle of overwork that leads to burnout

* Why you should look at systems rather than people when things go

wrong

About Rich:

Menlo Innovations CEO Richard Sheridan became disillusioned in the middle

of his career in the chaotic technology industry. He had an all-consuming

thought: things can be better. Much better. He had to find a way. Why

couldn't a workplace be filled with camaraderie, human energy, creativity,

and productivity?

Ultimately, Rich co-founded Menlo Innovations in 2001 to end human

suffering in the workplace. Menlo's unique approach to custom software

creation is so surprisingly different that 3,000 people a year travel from

around the world just to see how they do it.
