YOU Management: Strategies to
Avoid Burnout, Boost Resilience,
and Accelerate Success
Colette Carlson
Regardless of your title and role, people experience everyday stressors while
they are expected to stay agile through constant change. In today's world,
people are required to exceed expectations and produce more in less time
with fewer resources, all while staying positive and engaged with colleagues
and customers. New challenges have collapsed the boundaries between work
and home, leaving people juggling opposing demands for time, energy, and
attention. It's no surprise that even with the best of intentions, leaders and
teams feel stressed out, disconnected, and emotionally exhausted. Enough!
It's time for YOU Management!
