Leading Team Wellbeing and Preventing Collective Burnout

Heavy workloads, thin staffing and constant pressure are pushing whole teams toward exhaustion across many African workplaces. This course shifts the focus from individual coping to the leader's role in protecting the wellbeing of the entire team. Participants learn to spot the warning signs of collective burnout, manage workload and pace, and build the conditions in which people can sustain high performance without breaking.
