brave work research brief

Burnout is predictable.
What most teams lack is the language and data to see it happening.

This brief is your roadmap to understanding how burnout spreads, why traditional fixes fail, and which specific pressure points are impacting your teams.

YOU DON’T NEED A PIZZA PARTY. YOU NEED DATA.

  • THE STAGES OF BURNOUT

    Burnout isn’t an “off/on” switch. Most leaders don’t catch burnout until the damage is irreversible. We outline the progression—from early depletion to full collapse—so you can read the warning signs in real time and respond strategically, not reactively.

  • 8 DOMAINS OF BURNOUT

    Workload is the least interesting part of burnout. The brief outlines eight critical domains—everything from autonomy to identity threat to values misalignment—so you can pinpoint exactly where burnout is taking hold and why certain groups are at higher risk.

  • BURNOUT SYSTEM AMPLIFIERS

    Some organizational patterns quietly accelerate burnout across the entire system. If you’re not tracking amplifiers like role ambiguity, span of control, or systemic process overload, you can “do everything right” and still watch morale slowly wane. The brief shows you where those accelerators live—and how to slow them down.
