"Timely lessons, in mercifully compact form." (Financial Times) "Searching, empathetic, and timely . . . . Davis describes the burnout process as more complicated than simply being tired from working too hard; she views it as a manifestation of chronic workplace stress, and as a 'gateway process' to more serious health problems, such as depression and panic attacks. She asserts that the key to getting through burnout is to avoid trying to do so alone. The silver bullet, she says, is teamwork." (Kirkus) "Building resilience is a team sport, not an individual trait. In this groundbreaking book, Paula Davis gives us a roadmap for creating stronger teams and sustainable well-being. Beating Burnout at Work is loaded with practical strategies and steeped in great research." (Tom Rath, author of Life's Great Question and StrengthsFinder 2.0) "In Beating Burnout at Work, Paula Davis provides a critical field guide for explaining burnout in your organization as well as some practical steps that organizations and teams can use to avoid it. This book is a must for anyone who's feeling overwhelmed and looking to find ways to get back into balance." (Dr. Laurie Santos, Professor of Psychology at Yale, Host of the Happiness Lab Podcast, and Creator of Yale's Most Popular Course, Psychology & the Good Life) "The COVID-19 pandemic only exacerbated a trend that has permeated throughout the workplace: We're all feeling more stretched, more exhausted, and more overwhelmed. Beating Burnout at Work highlights how we can diagnose burnout, and how leaders can change work practices to ensure their employees are able to bounce back stronger and more resilient than before." (Dr. Jon M. Jachimowicz, Assistant Professor, Organizational Behavior Unit, Harvard Business School) "Not only was Beating Burnout at Work informative, but reading it was delightful. Davis nailed the art of delivering complex, evidence-based information using accessible language, a smooth cadence and such a relatable voice. Best of all is the way she animated key points with anecdotes and storytelling. Here is how engaged I was: If the book were a person I would take it to lunch immediately just to swap stories with a smart friend." (Alyssa Brennan, Director, Strategic Projects, Global Security & Resilience Services at Google) "The unique team and systems approach in Beating Burnout at Work is practical and goes beyond treating the symptoms of individual burnout to identifying and treating root causes that impact everyone in the work environment. This sets the stage for lasting change." (Beth Hammer, MSN, RN, ANP-BC) "I don't remember being a part of a team that enjoys getting together and talking through issues as much as the group I'm working with now, and I can credit much of that to the tools Paula gave us and shares in her book, Beating Burnout at Work." (Lauren A. Shure, Maj, USAF, Deputy Chief, Special Victims' Counsel) "Understanding how to avoid burnout and build resilience in yourself and in your team is, more than ever, a foundational and essential skill. No one understands this topic more deeply than Paula Davis, and in Beating Burnout at Work she outlines a powerful data-driven and research-based framework for countering burnout." (Jack Newton, CEO and Founder, Clio, and author of The Client-Centered Law Firm) "Paula is a thought leader in the application of the science of resilience to teams, and I'm excited that she has translated her incredible work into such a user-friendly guide for leaders and organizations. As questions about the future of work increase, her book opens the door for a much-needed conversation about burnout and how to create positive cultures at work." (Mary Shen O'Carroll, Director of Operations, Technology & Strategy, Google)
