Episode 4: How to Recognize & Prevent Burnout in Your Team

• What is the difference between stress and burnout? 
• How do you keep from missing the signs of burnout in your team and avoid throwing new hires to the wolves when everyone else on the team is burnt out? 
• What is the manager vs. the employee’s responsibility for managing burnout? 

In this episode you’ll find the answers to these questions and more. We’ll discuss tools you can use to make sure you’re hiring the right people for your organization. We’ll talk about how you can utilize the strengths of the people you hire and distribute work evenly to make sure the people in your organization don’t burn out. 

Sharon Kitroser with Team Kat & Mouse outlines three ways to avoid burnout. 

1. Give your team a voice 
2. Meet with your team one-on-one. 
3. Acknowledge the stress but don’t ONLY talk about the feelings
