I’m in Burnout, What Do I Do? (Pt. 5)
Layoffs, talk of an impending recession, employee burnout, and job search exhaustion have so many of us feeling like we’ve made the wrong moves, it’s unsafe to make a change or that we have failed in some way. Failure is a scary word for so many of us. We’ve been brought up to believe it is the worst outcome and we should avoid it at all costs, but what if that is false? It’s time to flip the fear of failure on its head. What if failure holds the clue to the wisdom we most need to learn? What if failure is a faster way to finding the solution? In this episode, we dive into the importance of acknowledging failure as separate from yourself and your worth, the power in owning and honoring the stumbles you’ve experienced and how failure oftentimes is a key component on the path to living and leading authentically. There’s also a bit of advice for managers in how they can create a more productive and inclusive performance review process.
