Busting Through Workplace Burnout
Marketing and biz-dev professionals. It’s late August.
You’re working late again in a virtually empty office. Most of your colleagues
are happily on vacation, by the pool or soaking up full-blast AC with friends
or family at the local bistro, movie theatre or mall. If you think you’re the one
burning the proverbial candle at both ends, you’re not alone.
The good news is that your work ethic, talent, reliability
and perfectionist tendencies have enabled you to hold on to your job during the
worst job market in a generation. The bad news is that your work ethic, talent,
reliability and perfectionist tendencies have gotten you into a vicious cycle.
Your superiors, peers and subordinates all feel they can count on 24/7 to get
the job done, take on yet another task and deliver it on time, on budget and
with flying colors.
Any of this sounding familiar? Read more from a recent column I did about strategies for fighting workplace burnout and ways to recognize signs of unmanageable stress before it’s too late. Life’s too short.
