We’re more aware of burnout than ever before, but are we looking out for leaders as much as our teams?

As GitHub’s Anjuan Simmons can attest, burnout is an equal opportunity force, which affects teams, managers, VPs and CEOs alike.

  • Leaders’ experiences with burnout
  • The art of ‘self-arresting’
  • How to build burnout-resilience
