Abstract

Take care of yourself rather than work to exhaustion. All the predictable consequences of burnout can result from poorly deploying your passionate commitments: bad judgments, losing connections with family, and your health. Take care of yourself not as an indulgence, but to help ensure that the causes you join have the best chance of achieving success, and that you are still around to enjoy the fruits of your labors. This chapter describes several practices for thriving while leading adaptive change. This chapter is excerpted from ‘The Practice of Adaptive Leadership: Tools and Tactics for Changing Your Organization and the World'.
