A cheat sheet won’t bring an end to Burnout.

But filling our organisations with mindful leaders - who value stress awareness and empathy above pressure, overwork and expectation, who set boundaries on a level with business needs - will put us on a healthier path to prevention.

To supporting the needs of colleagues who may feel disconnected, isolated or on the verge of exhaustion. To giving those burning out, the chance to recover their health and wellbeing.

Wishing you a wonderful day,
