Description

Healthcare professions have historically involved long work hours and high stress levels, and in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, working conditions have led to widespread burnout in healthcare. Burnout can damage workers’ health and lead to staff shortages. In this environment, it is critical that healthcare leaders recognize triggers of burnout in their people and organizations. By knowing and applying best practices for reducing burnout, leaders can help keep their teams and departments well-staffed and functioning effectively. In this micro-course, Managing Burnout in Healthcare Organizations, you will learn how leaders effectively manage the impacts of burnout on their workforces.

You will learn about the conditions that lead to burnout in healthcare, as well as its negative effects on individuals and in organizations. You will examine tools for measuring burnout and identifying at-risk individuals, including the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) and the Oldenburg Burnout Inventory. Finally, you will discover leadership styles, such as relational leadership, authentic leadership, transformational leadership, and resonant leadership, that can help you create a burnout-resistant culture within your organization.
