Episode notes

I was leading a team of 26,000 people at Cisco and realized I was burning out. At my new company, Fable, we do something every Friday that we call Fable Fica. The only rule is that the prompt has to be something that doesn't have anything to do with work. It's part of our operating system in the company.

How do you nurture human talent in today’s AI-obsessed, pressure-cooker business climate? Arianna Huffington, founder of Thrive and Huffington Post, and Padmasree Warrior, founder of Fable and former chief strategy officer at Cisco, offer actionable advice on avoiding burnout—for yourself and your teams. Arianna and Padma explain how productivity and positive business outcomes are directly linked to employees’ health and wellbeing. Recorded live at the Masters of Scale Summit in San Francisco, they share with host Bob Safian their personal experiences with burnout as well as simple tips, including how even a brief 60-second break can be a powerful tool to de-stress.
