​

The People and Systems Behind Performance

 

  • What burnout can reveal about workload, role design, organizational culture, and the decisions that influence whether talented professionals can continue doing excellent work.

  • How organizations come to depend on their most reliable people, why overfunctioning can become embedded in workplace culture, and what sustainable leadership asks of individuals and institutions.

  • A candid examination of credibility, visibility, bias, and the pressure to make excellence legible in professional spaces with narrow expectations of what expertise and leadership should look like.
