Topic: Understanding Burnout 

Accounting is an industry that is particularly susceptible to burnout – 82% of accounting firm owners report burnout symptoms! It doesn’t just make it hard for you to do your job. Burnout is costing you and your firm in profit and performance. 

And yet, burnout isn’t talked about enough nor truly understood. In this session, we will go into what burnout is, what it is not, how to recognise it and how to prevent it from happening to you and your team. Tamryn personally went through burnout when building her accounting firm and she shares her experience extremely openly and honestly in the hope that others will not walk in her footsteps!

This session will cover:

  • Burnout vs Stress
  • Causes of burnout
  • The impact of burnout – personally, professionally and commercially
  • Recognising burnout (symptoms to look out for)
  • Treating burnout 
  • Practical steps to implement to prevent burnout
