12 STAGES OF BURNOUTWhat it means to burnout
There’s no clear cut definition of what burnout is but the term first appeared in the 1970s from the psychologist Herbert Freudenberger. Freudgenberger and his colleague Gail North identified 12 stages that
lead up to burnout
These twelve stages don’t necessarily have to happen in order. Some people experience them all, others only experience some of them.
The physiological symptoms of burnout are caused by our fight or flight response. Whether we like it or not, this response can be triggered by
common work stressors (like trying to meet deadlines or finish projects).
