Burnout

Average

Motivational pattern: autonomous motivation holds, but Operations is carrying the strain

Current state
Burnout is moderate (41) across the organisation, but it is not evenly spread. It is highest in Operations (54) and lowest in Support (31).
Why this is happening
In Operations, high burnout coincides with the lowest satisfaction with managers (45) and with change management (36). People carry a heavy workload without enough support, and hear about changes too late to prepare. Autonomous motivation still holds, so this is not a loss of will but exhaustion that can be reduced.
What needs to be done
With the team leads in Operations, review how work and priorities are spread, introduce short weekly conversations about workload, and agree rules on overtime and availability outside working hours. October's measurement will show whether it moved.

A phased action plan

Each initiative carries a rationale, the steps to take, the expected outcome, a minimum viable version if you are short on time, the first evidence you should see, the risk of not doing it, and what it depends on.

  • Phases and initiatives, with an overview table
  • A minimum viable version of each initiative
  • The first evidence to look for
  • An explicit risk of doing nothing
  • Dependencies between initiatives

Action plan

Generated from this measurement

Phase 1 - first ninety days

  • Reduce workload and build in recovery in Operations

    Burnout scores 41 overall and 54 in Operations - the highest in the organisation, alongside the lowest satisfaction with managers (45) in the same department.

    Steps

    Review workload and priorities with the team leads

    Introduce short weekly conversations about workload

    Agree rules on overtime and availability outside working hours

    Risk of not doing it: Operations already shows the highest burnout. Without relief, exhaustion turns into absence and departures, and the first to go are the people the work rests on most.

  • A decision is announced before it takes effect

    Change management scores 42, and 36 in Operations. People are not resisting the changes - they are finding out about them too late to prepare.

Phase 2 - months four to nine

  • Manager support programme for Operations

    Manager satisfaction is 45 in Operations against 71 in Sales. The gap is not about people; it is about which managers have ever been taught to do this part of the job.

  • Regular one-to-ones with a written agenda

    The cheapest intervention in the plan, and the one with the broadest effect: it moves autonomy, competence and relatedness at the same time.

03

The artefacts, already written

Every initiative comes with the operational documents needed to run it: meeting agendas, templates, checklists, short surveys, facilitation guides, individual development plans, minutes.
