577: How to beat burnout (with Michael P. Leiter, Ph.D.)

Welcome to an interview with the co-author of The Burnout Challenge, Michael P. Leiter, Ph.D.

Burnout is one of the major contributors driving people to leave their job. It results from unsuccessfully managed workplace stress and is a combination of exhaustion, psychological distancing, and a low sense of accomplishment. So how do we address burnout and who is responsible for managing this issue?

In this episode, we discuss the factors contributing to employee burnout and what leaders and managers can do to understand, protect, and manage their employees to alleviate the distress from the elements that result in burnout.

"Some people are looking for something from that job that it's not providing, that there is a mismatch." —Michael P. Leiter, Ph.D.

Michael P. Leiter, Ph.D., is an organizational psychologist interested in the relationships of people with their work. He has been a professor of Industrial and Organisational Psychology at Deakin University in the Faculty of Health and Canada Research Chair in Occupational Health at Acadia University.

Michael lives in Nova Scotia where he writes and consults with workplaces on preventing burnout while improving respect among people.
