Two surveys done by Catalyst and The Female Lead gave us some interesting and Disturbing information about how folks are doing at this point in the world. I think you should know about this as it affects everything including your personal life, work and your management;
Catalyst Poll
In 2021 They did a poll of their followers (33,000+) globally. The results were stunning:
92.3% of respondents said they were experiencing BurnOut!
Wow! 92.3% That's monumental. The Burnout they experienced ranged from
"some Level" 34.5% to 57.8% reporting a High Level.
The ramifications are extreme. Let's put it this way, I wouldn't want someone in your company handling QA while experiencing a High Level of Burnout.
It also means People are beginning to breakdown; Physically and Mentally.
When you are at a High Level of Burnout you are in trouble for long term damage to your entire system.
If you are experiencing any amount of Burnout please get help. You can text, E-mail or call us.
Don't wait until you are totally broken down! STOP DOING NOW and GET HELP
We also recommend the book:
Women's Burnout by Freudenberger &
North
In Essence this means 92% of all people you come in contact with are in some level of Burnout. Adjust your behavior accordingly!
The Female Lead Poll
Again a global poll including 85,000+
women and it is ongoing.
Again stunning results for all of you who manage;
They are asking "what is your ideal work set up?"
The Results are surprising:
Work From Home Permanently 29%
Work in an Office Permanently 2%
Work in a Hybrid 68%
(Mix of office and home)
So home and Hybrid combined make up 97%
That means if your company does not offer a flexible work environment it is probable you will not attract or keep top talent.
It is a wake up call for all of us.
Let us know what you think and if you need help from us we are here to support you!
