For Your Teams
Decode the Stress Level
Burnout is loud at the end and quiet at the start. Learn to read it while you can still do something about it.
By the time stress shows up as a missed deadline or a resignation letter, the cost is already paid. The signals that actually matter come far earlier and they're easy to miss if you don't know where to look.
This session teaches leaders to read those early signals: the small shifts away from how a person normally operates, the three places burnout shows up before anyone says a word, and a simple way to tell a bad week from a real warning sign. It also gives them a structured framework to spot it without asking first.

Statistics
Why you want to learn it
Catching stress early is a strategic approach:
Most leaders only spot burnout from the big signals: a missed deadline, a 1:1 in tears, a notice letter. By then the damage is done.
Three occurrences inside a 14-day window is the threshold where a bad week becomes a real cognitive shift and the earliest point to step in before work quality drops.
Replacing a burned-out key player costs around 2x their annual salary (Gallup). Spotting it early costs a conversation.
