To cultivate a thriving work environment that fuels both productivity and well-being, it is imperative that you plan success without sacrificing your teams' mental and emotional health. The journey toward optimal productivity requires strategic reevaluation of both individual and organizational responsibilities toward burnout. Burnout is not just an individual responsibility, and shifting from the conventional grind mentality to a holistic approach encompassing work-life balance, mental health support, and growth opportunities can catalyze a transformative change. By acknowledging burnout as a real concern, giving yourself permission to think differently, and implementing short-term measures for long-term gains as an organization, you can maximize your outcome.

Julian is a musician turned entrepreneur, known for his work on the groundbreaking Broadway musical Hamilton to a passionate advocate for combating burnout. He suffered a stress-induced heart attack at 43 years old, which became the catalyst for extensive research on achievement and work-related stress, leading him to disrupt society's approach to work and stress. During the conversation, Julian shares his strategies for banishing burnout in organizations while supporting high achievers. He emphasizes the importance of addressing stress and nurturing a healthier work culture to achieve sustainable success. Tune in to learn from Julian Reeve's valuable insights and practical tips as he empowers you to transform your organization's approach to work, well-being, and success.

This episode is for change agents and leaders who want to understand why EI (emotional intelligence) is critical to DEI work and for those who want to hear tangible solutions to common scenarios leaders experience.  Leaders often overlook the emotional context of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) work. This can lead to a disconnect between leadership endorsing DEI but not actually following through with the commitment or action. In this episode, Chief Encouragement Officer Antoinetta Mosley and Senior Partnership Leader Rorri-Geller Mohamed unpacked why well-intentioned leaders often struggle to move DEI work forward, how awareness of emotional context cultivates a healthy workplace culture, and what you as a leader can do to better support DEI work at your organization.
