Across industries and across job titles, burnout is at an all-time high.

 

But here’s one of the questions I’m obsessed with: 

​

• If 2/3 of doctors are burned out (or on their way), who are the 1/3 of doctors who feel energized at work?

• What can we learn from them, and what can they teach us about improving the way we work, even in careers outside of medicine?

I’ve spoken to many high performers in health care, business, law, computer science, and other fields who describe themselves as feeling strong and energized at work. I love learning from these individuals, and I'm so excited to share some of their common strategies for success.

​

One of the key lessons? The high performers who are energized at work have learned the art of energy management. In other words, more of what lights you up and less of what drains you. Please see the sections below for more on the research behind energy management, and some practical strategies on the science of recharging.
