71% of Leaders Are Burned Out - How to Prevent the Whole Team from Burning Out with Them
10.11.2025
Today, more and more people recognize that burnout is a real risk that can affect almost anyone, impacting both mental and physical health. However, conversations about burnout still tend to focus on employees rather than leaders. According to a Deloitte Global Survey, 77% of employees have experienced burnout due to workload and expectations, yet leaders face the same level of risk. The Global Leadership Forecast shows that 71% of leaders worldwide report heightened stress levels - not only due to long working hours and back-to-back meetings, but because of emotional strain, decision fatigue, and structural pressure in organizations. Together, these factors significantly increase the risk of burnout.
Why salary alone does not create a sense of fairness and how employers can ensure both
20.10.2025
Salary is a central part of working life – it is compensation for work done, but also a symbol of how we are valued and appreciated. We often ask whether a salary is right: does it correspond to the market situation, the position, or the level of colleagues in similar roles? Less often, however, do we ask whether the compensation seems fair. These two concepts are not synonymous – and understanding the difference between them is the key to employee satisfaction and trust.
From Social Guarantees to Business Strategy: How the Understanding of Workplace Well-Being is Changing
11.08.2025
Workplace well-being is a concept that is increasingly appearing on the agendas of various organizations.

And is well-being a means to achieve higher profits and better business results, or is it the result of social pressure? Do companies that invest in well-being really gain more in the long term than those that ignore it? It is also important to clarify who in the organization is responsible for employee well-being – the manager, HR specialists, or the employees themselves.

As you set your out-of-office reply and prepare to log off, have you noticed how differently people disconnect? Some vanish, others stay semi-present, often with a beach selfie and a quick Slack check-in. That’s not just personal preference - it’s culture.
Vacation from work does not equal proper rest: how to really switch off
11.06.2025
Summer is upon us, and with it comes the much-anticipated vacation season. However, there is often a common misconception regarding the nature of vacation—it is frequently equated with rest. Most people and organisations mainly view vacation from a work perspective and consider it as off-job time that provides employees with opportunities to remove stress sources related to work. Proper rest, however, involves the restoration of energy, mental rejuvenation, and the opportunity to engage in direct and profound social interaction with family and friends. In a world that praises constant busyness and “grinding,” taking time off and knowing how to truly rest has become a rare occurrence, whether during a typical week or even while on vacation.
