About the Episode

About the episode: Burnout has become one of higher education’s worst kept human resources secrets. We only have to go as far as an off-campus conversation to find out that some colleagues who seem to have it all together are probably suffering the worst cases of burnout. On this episode, we will chat with Rebecca Pope-Ruark, a former tenured professor who researches burnout and coaches faculty through their burnout experiences. 

In this episode of “I Wanna Work There!” we will:

  1. Hear Rebecca’s burnout story and learn what it is.
  2. Learn how burnout impacts employees’ productivity, particularly on the faculty side.
  3. Get an idea of how colleges and universities can help their faculty and staff manage burnout.
