Canadian thought leader, author and workplace strategist Jennifer Moss on tackling employee burnout
Best-selling author on burnout and employee wellbeing Jennifer Moss sat down with HRDTV to talk in depth about how data can be used to transform workplaces into positive and supportive cultures.
Moss has a forthcoming book on the topic of disengagement, based on her own research into the psychology of what employees are currently needing from their workplaces.
“We need to be thinking much further upstream about how we’re going to be preventing burnout, preventing chronic stress. We tend to look at these downstream ways of solving it with programs that put the self-care piece back on the individuals,” Moss said.
“If you’re really looking at the definition of burnout, chronic stress, it’s institutional workplace stress left unmanaged, and those root causes are workload, overwork. It’s a lack of community.”
