Burnout among health care professionals isn't just a staffing issue; it’s a crisis rooted in systems, culture, and misaligned values.
In this episode, Dr. Steve Swensen explores the growing crisis of burnout and moral injury among health care workers, highlighting its roots in emotional exhaustion, misaligned values, and lack of agency, and how it harms clinicians, patients, and organizational performance. He shares solutions, including five key leadership behaviors: understanding, recognition, belonging, transparency, and mentorship, along with better job design, removal of workflow obstacles, and a culture of kindness, which he calls “love in action” and a measurable business advantage.
Tune in and learn how transforming leadership and culture can heal both caregivers and the system itself!
