How to Protect Your Top Talent From Burnout

An organization has a top-producing team.

With layoffs & hiring holds, more gets added to their plate.

But they can handle it.

Right?

Historically, they’ve produced excellent results, so organizations naturally want them to do more.

Be careful.

If they’re not getting more resources/support to accomplish those things…

They won’t be a top-performing team for long.

“It’s like we’re being penalized because we created this great team,” I’ve heard before.

Instead of penalizing your high-performing team - duplicate them!

You have two choices:
1. Invest in the resources they need
OR
2. Prioritize what needs to be accomplished - what will REALLY make the impact to move the organization forward

If you don’t invest or prioritize, you will lose your top people.

Don't think about it as PULLING money away from anything; you're investing IN your team and your organization's future.

Your team may be achieving the desired results now, but if they continue to be under-resourced and under-supported, they won’t continue to achieve the results.

It’s not sustainable.

Protect your top performers.

Don’t wait until they’re burnt out or looking to leave.
