The Burnout Fix by Dr Jacinta M. Jiménez is an evidence-based resilience toolkit written to help individuals, teams and organisations overcome overwhelm, beat busy, and sustain success in a healthy way.
“It doesn’t matter if you work harder or smarter; if you neglect to nurture a steady personal pulse, your success will be short-lived.”
As organisations face the growing challenge of helping employees recover from workplace burnout, it’s clear that what they really need to do is teach their people how to avoid it altogether. With a sense of lightness, humour and touching storytelling, Dr Jimenez shares her personal experience as an example of what to avoid on that dangerous road to MORE! She also takes the complex topic of burnout and shapes it into a set of relatable core components to cultivate personal and professional resilience – the PULSE practices.
There’s a comprehensive series of practical, common-sense strategies for putting those tools into practice too.
