The Talks

  • The landscape of work is continually transforming, presenting new challenges. To remain robust in the face of such change, acknowledging and fostering the critical link between well-being and performance is imperative. This symbiosis is the cornerstone of not only sustaining immediate productivity, but also long-term professional fulfillment and overall life satisfaction.

    The evidence is compelling: research indicates that well-being fuels workers’ cognitive capacity, spurring creative and innovative thinking, bolstering engagement and motivation, and empowering them to proactively confront challenges and strive for excellence.

    Drawing from her deep knowledge of human behavior, Dr. Jacinta M. Jiménez, Stanford University-trained psychologist, Board Certified Leadership Coach, and author of The Burnout Fix, will reveal evidence- based methods to foster well-being, helping you maintain a competitive advantage. This dynamic keynote presentation will tackle the critical issue of workplace burnout, offering attendees actionable strategies to not only shield themselves from its impacts but also to build resilience that fosters sustained success.

    Discover how prioritizing well-being and buffering against burnout acts as a driving force for success, influencing how you approach your career and personal growth.

    Audience members will learn about:

    • The relationship between well-being and peak performance.

    • Tools and strategies to outmaneuver burnout before it takes hold.

    • Methods to enhance personal and professional resilience using approaches grounded in scientific research.

    This session is an invitation to engage with practices that not only bolster resilience but also redefine what it means to thrive in today’s working world.

  • It is no secret that burnout has become a widespread epidemic. In fact, a recent Deloitte survey found that 77% of respondents have experienced burnout in their current job, and in May 2019, the World Health Organization recognized burnout as an occupational phenomenon.

    With the onset of COVID-19, the blurry boundary between work and life has become non-existent overnight, leaving many even more susceptible to burnout. Accordingly, it is more important than ever to learn how to identify burnout and especially, how to buffer against it.

    Drawing from her deep knowledge of human behavior, Dr. Jacinta M. Jiménez, Stanford University-trained psychologist, Board Certified Leadership Coach, and author of The Burnout Fix, will deliver a presentation to reveal 3 key science-backed steps to address burnout in uncertain times:

    RECOGNIZE: What exactly is burnout and how to monitor for it.

    RESPOND: Strategies and tips for effectively counter burnout.

    REPLENISH: How to leverage pro-resilience practices to buffer against burnout.

    Audience members will come away with a better understanding of:

    • The myths and truths of burnout.

    • The science-backed definition of burnout and how to identify it.

    • The 6 science-backed mismatches between the nature of work and the nature of the person doing the work that have been found in research to lead to burnout.

    • A 3-step process to buffer against burnout.

  • We all know that excessive stress is a health hazard. What is less talked about are the effects of burnout on business performance. Stress makes people nearly three times as likely to leave their jobs, temporarily impairs strategic thinking, and lowers creative abilities.

    Given that burnout is a growing phenomenon in the workplace, successful leaders will be the ones who develop team cultures that apply the most insightful lessons of psychological science to cultivate an environment that inspires their people to tap into their core resilience capabilities.
