Burnout Prevention and Energy Management
Notice earlier, open the conversation with care and agree what happens next.
Starting a conversation about exhaustion can feel risky, and managers often wait until performance slips. Building a training session around it takes time you may not have. This deck provides the steps and wording to adapt.

This is a ready-to-use, editable PowerPoint deck of 51 slides for managers on burnout conversations. It sets out a six-step process, two conversation templates, three case vignettes and a follow-up rhythm. It suits managers, team leads, HR partners and trainers running manager development.
The deck opens with the context managers need: what burnout is, its cost for individuals and organisations, the vicious loop of exhaustion, cynicism and inefficacy, and common causes such as lack of control and unclear expectations. Chapter 2 explains why manager conversations matter, covering safe spaces, psychological safety and the Getting on the Balcony technique of stepping back for a wider view.
Chapter 3 is the working core. Six steps run from preparation, where you check your own energy and bias, through opening the dialogue with empathy and observation rather than accusation, active listening and validation, collaborative problem-solving with open questions, setting boundaries and realistic expectations, to follow-up with week-by-week touchpoints. Two scripted templates follow: the Check-In and the Solution Brainstorm. A one-page flow diagram sums it up.
Chapter 4 adds tools for individuals and teams: the Three R approach, warning signs, a resilience meter, breathwork and an energy tracker. Chapter 5 has three case vignettes, an overwhelmed creator, a stretched team lead and a burned-out senior professional. Chapter 7 closes with separate takeaways for individuals and managers and a personal prevention checklist.
