137. Are you there, burnout? It’s us, everybody

Hey, how ya feeling? Exhausted? Stressed? Like a rubber band that’s finally snapped? Same. These days, the burnout paradigm seems to have shifted from the micro to the macro: Individual burnout has ballooned into collective burnout—into an overwhelming sense of being out of control and out of moves to help make things right. So, what can we do with those feelings? In today’s episode, Aaron and Rodney talk about:

What the underlying drivers of collective burnout are

How it’s showing up inside workplaces and teams (including at The Ready)

How we can start to tackle burnout as a society-wide challenge

What org design can do to address the root of the problem

How we’re taking care of ourselves and each other during a time of non-stop tumult

+ A PSA: The Ready is hiring its first in-house finance steward. We’re looking for someone with a point of view on the future of finance to help us evolve our financial operations in alignment with the future of work.
