Nobody, no matter the field or role, is immune to burnout. According to the Mayo Clinic, “job burnout is a special type of work-related stress — a state of physical or emotional exhaustion that also involves a sense of reduced accomplishment and loss of personal identity,” that may be related to depression. And while depression is a much bigger bear to wrestle, we can take steps to address, manage, and prevent burnout.
Scott is an award-winning author and speaker; she has years of experience leading corporate innovation and sustainability. Scott was named one of the Top 10 Most Inspiring Women Leaders of 2022, is a thought leader on the 2023 Forbes Business Council, and her work was honored at the White House as part of its Energy Data Initiative.
