STORY

Burnout Research
What it is and how to get ahead of it
8
Defining Burnout
A response to prolonged exposure to emotional, physical and interpersonal stressors
Characterized by the feelings of:
Maslach,Schaufeli,& Leiter, 2001
EXHAUSTION
I’m so tired
I feel depleted
CYNICISM
I’m so fed up,
I just don’t care
anymore
INEFFICACY
I’m not making
a difference
9
From on Fire… to
Burned Out
• You have to be on fire in order to
burn out
• You have to care, be “all in”, and
be engaged in order to burnout
BURNOUT HAPPENS WHEN YOU HAVE HIGH
ENGAGEMENT BUT LOW WELL-BEING
Phases of Burnout
11LimeadeInstitute, 2019
What’s The Difference?
DISENGAGEMENT
I am past the point
of caring or I have never cared
at all
This is just a job
BURNOUT
I have cared so deeply, for so
long, without a break from the
stress that I have become
depleted and cynical
I have given everything
to this job
ENGAGEMENT
I am energized by and
connected to this job, so much
so that I get purpose from it
This is way more than
a job
12
Most companies think of burnout
as a PERSONAL issue, when it is
really an ORGANIZATIONAL one…
ORGANIZATIONS have a responsibility
to help their employees PREVENT
burnout and ALLEVIATE burnout
13
Maslach,Schaufeli,& Leiter, 2001; Mayo Clinic,2019 14
Overload – workload and time
pressure
Lack of support from managers
Lack of feedback
Lack of participation in decision making
Lack of fairness and equity
Role conflict and ambiguity; job or

Burnout Leads to:
ORGANIZATIONAL IMPACTS
• Reduced organizational commitment
• Absenteeism
• Intention to leave
• Actual turnover
PERSONAL IMPACTS
• Lower productivity
• Stress-related health issues
• Increased substance abuse
• Anxiety, depression
and decreases in self-esteem
Maslach,Schaufeli,& Leiter, 2001; Burke & Greenglass,2001
Burnout is Contagious
Greater personal conflict at work
Increased work disruption
“Spillover” into people’s life outside of
work
17
Maslach,Schaufeli,& Leiter, 2001; Burke & Greenglass,2001
Burned out employees were more than
2x
as likely to have tried to convince another
colleague to leave the job with them (31%
vs 12%)
