Professional Burnout And Disengagement In The A E Industry: What If They’re Right?


Over the past three decades A/E firms have faced tremendous changes in the make-up of their workforces, the structure of their workplaces, the markets they serve, and the technology they use. And the tempo for change is accelerating.

Over the past 10 years alone, we have seen a great recession packed with long hours for surviving staff, followed by a great boom producing more work than people. At the same time, progress has erased many traditional forms of practice and staff are more proactive and informed than ever before.

Join Peter Atherton, P.E., author of Reversing Burnout, How to Immediately Engage Top Talent and Grow! A Blueprint for Professionals and Business Owners, for this 60-minute podcast and learn:

  • If the rumors of widespread burnout and disengagement are true
  • How our ability to recruit and retain top talent and profit as an organization are affected by staff and leaders who are not fully or properly engaged
  • The key takeaways that leaders and leadership teams need to know to successfully navigate the change and inspire greater long-term commitment and growth
  • When to step in and take action to prevent and reverse burnout while increasing both engagement and performance in you and your firm
