Burnout doesn’t just happen to busy practice owners. It can happen to our staff too. So how do safe (and unsafe) systems of work impact on the risk of burnout for our workforce? Dr Julie Bajic Smith returns to the podcast this week to explore this question with Jo.
In this episode, Jo and Julie discuss:
- The implications of having a burnout workforce and the impact it can have on the quality of care delivered by staff
- Julie’s experience with burnout and realising that she didn’t want to manage people
- The importance of giving yourself permission to do things differently
- How Julie’s mission and passion have shaped her service delivery
- The importance of safe systems of work to protect staff from burnout
- What ‘emotional contagion’ is
- The impact emotional contagion can have (good or bad) on the culture in an workplace and on service delivery to clients
- How to separate positive and negative emotions in the workplace
- The importance of understanding what helps you switch off from work and better balance work and life, and
- Examples of workplaces that are managing the burnout risk well.
