Podcast: Chief Change OfficerPublished On: Sat May 04 2024
Description: Would you call this bad luck or burnout—heart attack, job loss, car repossession, and home foreclosure, all happening to the same person in one year? More than ten years ago, Michael found himself in exactly this catastrophic situation. At that time, society was far less open about discussing burnout and its severe impacts on both individuals and companies. Facing these challenges head-on, Michael endured a heart attack induced by severe burnout—a modern-day epidemic equivalent to a heart attack in its sudden and profound impact. Having survived these trials, he has now shifted gears to assist people, leaders, and organisations, both large and small. Career Change Master: Michael D.
