Escaping professional burnout is punishing: not least because planning a positive future is much harder when you are exhausted and estranged from work.

However, while such crises are overwhelming and unpleasant, they also contain the seeds of professional renewal.

In this webinar, executive coach and management professor Monique Valcour will show how we can both respond to the immediate challenges of an intolerable work situation and start to construct a more positive future

We will discuss four strategies to address work demands that have become unmanageable:
Prioritising self-care to replenish physical and emotional energy
Revisiting your assumptions about work to see what in your work environment can be “fixed”
Reducing exposure to job stressors (and how to identify them)
Seeking out connections with colleagues (and coaches and mentors)

Additionally, we will show how you can develop a vision of a post-burnout future even when your environment is difficult.

We will examine:
How to judge whether your work situation is “fixable”
How to uncover new opportunities and career goals
How to measure progress and rebuild a sense of agency
