Management Research: What Burnout Is Not

Hello and welcome!

 

Today I make a short episode on some myths about burnout. Some people do confuse burnout with different affective states, illnesses, or other concepts. Although being related, they are not the same. Stress is not burnout, although chronic stress can lead to burnout. 

Unfortunately, burnout became a "fashion illness" when some people even intentionally misuse the concept and use the word "burnout" to indicate that they work hard and are even proud of it. In this episode, we shortly talk about it and discuss some concepts that are related to burnout but are not identical to burnout.

Enjoy, share, comment, and subscribe - it does matter!
