It’s not uncommon, to have burnout, and it’s not a stigma to admit it.
A review of international studies found 31% of doctors in the NHS admitted to high burnout, and 26% suffer traumatic stress.
Between 4% and 54% of nursing staff in the NHS intended to leave their jobs due to burnout.
75% of social workers experience burnout at least once in their career.
Business development strategists have a 44% rate of burnout.
All high-performing professionals suffer a significantly high rate of burnout in their careers. What’s more astonishing than those statistics is employers produce little or no meaningful change in the work environment to prevent or manage burnout.
In most instances, burnout is not due to the individual’s inability to manage the work or emotional stressors. It is due to an imbalance between demand and resilience.
Over time if you don’t fuel your resilience it will erode and it will be easier for burnout to take place. Add to that inability to recognize and admit it and you have an almost lethal combo.
