I thought this would talk about burnout on an employee level. Instead it was like a self help manual for upper management to manage employee burnout. I stick with it, it had good information, just wasn’t relevant to me/my workplace.
I am definitely not the target audience for this book but I did enjoy the empathy and some nuance that shined through. I also believe firmly that burnout is not something that the individual can solve and that change has to come from the companies.

I read this for an MBA class on reducing stress at the workplace. At this moment, diversity and inclusion policies are being challenged by the US government so it was an odd time to read about the extra burden people who are not the majority suffer due to disproportionate representation. The book is accessible and a good read on the topic that points to upstream decisions being the cause of burnout vs. individual workers not doing enough meditation.
This organization of this book is really strong and the reasons and fixes for burnout are especially strong. While I like the book is able to avoid the whining tone that is often a major part of books on this topic, however the example stories are a little long and at times distracted from the main ideas.
