What is Burnout?

I genuinely believe that burnout is the defining health challenge of the modern workplace. It’s not just "being tired." The World Health Organization (WHO) defines burnout as an occupational phenomenon resulting from chronic workplace stress that has not been successfully managed. It is characterized by three dimensions: feelings of energy depletion, increased mental distance from one’s job, and reduced professional efficacy.

Key Warning Signs:

  • Exhaustion: Feeling physically and emotionally depleted all the time.
  • Cynicism: Developing a negative, detached, or overly critical attitude toward your work and colleagues.
  • Inefficacy: Feeling like you aren't accomplishing anything, regardless of how much you work.
