This workshop explores the causes and consequences of burnout on after-school professionals through the lenses of neuroscience, emotional intelligence, and workplace demands. Participants will learn the symptoms of burnout, how to distinguish between stress, compassion fatigue, and burnout, and who is at risk. They will identify how workplace culture contributes to burnout and will explore ways that providers and managers can offer meaningful support.
Participants will:
- Identify the causes, warning signs, and symptoms of burnout
- Recognize the impact of burnout on physical health, emotions, behavior, thinking, relationships, and job performance
- Use a self-assessment checklist or a management audit checklist to identify burnout risk factors and stress patterns
