Abstract

A recent International Labour Organization study found that 1 in 10 workers suffers from stress, anxiety, depression, or burnout. But the blame cannot be placed solely on the changing pace of business today. Employees--especially top performers--often cause their own exhaustion and burnout. In this article, psychologists and other experts explain why employees burn themselves out, and how these star performers can steer their careers to avoid becoming candidates for burnout.
