Session Description:

Do you often find yourself overwhelmed with your workload, or do you supervise and support someone who seems overwhelmed?

 

Attend this session to drill down, dial in and zoom in to figure out the source of the overwhelm, how to cope and whose responsibility it is when it's time to make adjustments. Then, zoom out and gain some perspective. Find your sphere of influence, map out your scope of control and learn to work more comfortably by defining the true parameters and expectations of your position.

Learning Objectives:

  • Upon completion, participants will understand the definition of boreout vs. burnout and why assessing workload is important.
  • Upon completion, participants will have some ideas about how to better navigate feelings of overwhelm in themselves and in coaching their colleagues through it.
  • Upon completion, participants will have some work-based solutions for overwhelm, including setting realistic expectations for their teams, shifting the narrative around work/life balance and "zooming out" to review broader impacts of how we work.
