Under Pressure – build up resilience and keep burnout at bay (extended version)

Session time: Sunday 11:00am

Burnout is one of the biggest threats to building an engaged team. A recent study found that 95% of HR leaders admit that burnout is sabotaging their companies’ work quality and employee retention; yet there is no obvious solution on the horizon.

Jochen is a long-time IT manager in corporate and startup environments, and has had to deal with burnout many times (both himself and to support team members). He asks: “How can we stay sane and productive in a world of rapidly changing objectives? Well, if the answer was easy, we wouldn’t have to talk about it. And yes, we really have to talk about it.”

In this 45 minute session, he will share his experience with building resilience for himself and his team. He will cover useful practices for managers, employees and the self-employed, such as:

  • recognising burnout symptoms
  •  breaking out of the negative belief cycle
  •  contributing to a healthy company culture
  •  reducing time and resource pressure
  •  restoring focus
  •  building healthy relationships
  •  dealing with change
  •  developing lasting resilience
