This interactive report shares a summary of the Emotional Resilience in Leadership survey, that was run by the authors from November 2019 to May 1st. It was completed by 261 respondents from 43 countries, with 26 follow-up phone interviews.
For the past few months, Jan Chipchase and I have been working hard on this Emotional Resilience in Leadership Report.
Since launching our survey last November exploring burnout, we received five times more responses than expected and spent the past months analysing the data—much of which required interpreting open-ended answers and we're finally pleased to share the results of this research.
The report introduces two frameworks for looking at 'shadow stressors' and accumulated 'emotional debt'—it also explores the personal and financial costs of burnout and share tools and strategies for greater resilience.
Like many of you in the tech world, we’ve personally experienced burn-out. Our motivations for exploring this are to better understand the impact of burn-out on ourselves and to make the case to organisations for investing in employee emotional resilience. These publications are the first step in a multi-year exploration.
