Hustle culture – where stress, hard work, and long hours are considered the key to success – has long been pervasive in the tech industry.

Even within organizations that have traditionally valued work-life balance, the pressure on teams to “do more with less” and demonstrate efficiency with fewer people may be creating an environment ripe for burnout. 

I believe that to create efficient teams, we must dial up our own efforts to recognize burnout, react to it quickly, and create space in our teams to minimize burnout risk.

You will leave this talk with knowledge on how to:  

  • Recognize signs of burnout in someone who reports to you and support them through it
  • Make your team more resilient to burnout in a way that resonates with senior leadership
  • Not forget about yourself for the sake of your team
