Managing Burnout and Trauma
Course Introduction
Leaders, line managers and HR practitioners are now placed under an unprecedented level of expectation and pressure, in organisations. In addition to handling the personal impacts and uncertainty presented by global events such as the COVID-19 pandemic, those responsible for leading and supporting employees and teams take on vast additional responsibilities and pressure in an ambiguous and rapidly changing landscape.
For many people leaders and HR experts, the pressures and trauma can lead to burnout. For some it prompts a re-evaluation of work and life choices. Burnout is a very real issue for leaders, managers and HR practitioners and there comes a time when it is crucial to prioritise the health and wellbeing of those who spend their working lives putting the needs of others first.
