Can you name the three people on your team closest to quitting right now - before they hand in their notice?
Can you show your CFO, in a single number, what stress and burnout cost your company last year?
Can you tell whether last month's spike in sick days was random or the first crack in a team that's breaking?
Can you spot a burning-out employee from their calendar and their survey scores, not their resignation letter?
If you flinched at any of these, this book is the diagnostic and the fix.
Every one of those questions points at the same gap. Burnout almost always looks obvious in hindsight and invisible in themoment, because the signals - overtime, skipped vacations, falling engagement, the slow fade in meetings - are scatteredacross systems nobody reads together. That isn't a people failure. It's a missing system. This book is the system, built forHR leaders and the managers they support, with every tool printed in full inside.
Templates inside that answer each kind of question:
- The Company Burnout Diagnostic - read your real risk level today
- The Burnout Cost Calculator - put a dollar figure in front of leadership
- The Individual and Team Warning-Signs Checklists - catch it early
- The Hierarchy-of-Controls Worksheet - fix the work, not just the worker
- The Burnout Survey Bank and Pulse Question Set - listen at scale
- The Burnout-Aware 1:1 Script - surface stress before it becomes an exit
- The Manager Training Curriculum - equip your front line
- The Burnout Reporting Dashboard - keep stress visible to the board
- The 90-Day Rollout Plan - stand up the whole system from scratch
More than 54 templates in all - every one on the page. No email walls, no downloads, no broken links.
If you've read The Truth About Burnout by Christina Maslach or The No Asshole Rule by Robert Sutton and wanted theoperating manual that turns the research into a system you can run on Monday - this is that manual. A single consultingengagement on workplace wellbeing runs into the thousands. This costs less than lunch.
Stop counting resignations. Start building the workplace where they don't happen.
