Readers Speak: Burnout, a problem with solutions

Nathan Nickens, senior analyst & conference director for Customer Contact Week, emailed us about a free resource from CCWomen that offers advice on overcoming and preventing burnout. Titled The CCWomen Guide to Burnout, the publication includes six action steps toward conquering burnout; reflection exercises, prompts and resources; and research and advice from burnout expert and executive coach Jill Brown.

"If you're feeling burned out, know you're not alone," Nickens stated, adding that 53 percent of women interviewed in 2022 said their stress levels were higher than they were in 2021, and almost half stated they felt burned out in some capacity. This is based on Deloitte's Women at Work 2022: A Global Outlook study, published by Forbes in April 2022.

"Luckily, CCWomen is here to help." Nickens said. "Don't let burnout steal your peace." The guide is available a https://bit.ly/3zFWthz.
