Leadership buy-in is the key to preventing burnout
Physician advocate and physical therapist Kim Downey and counselor Shari Morin-Degel discuss their article, "Why burnout prevention starts with leadership." Shari shares her personal journey from a trauma-exposed mental health professional to a burned-out leader who initially expected her team to just "push through." The conversation highlights how she reached a breaking point and realized that true recovery requires more than just individual resilience, it requires systemic support. Kim and Shari explore the data behind the "My Work BALANCE" initiative, revealing that employee engagement with wellness tools soars only when leaders actively model participation and provide paid time for it. They discuss critical research on behavior change and argue that tools alone are useless without a culture of visible norms and psychological safety. Learn how to shift from a culture of survival to one where teams can actually thrive.
