What's the difference between a team that works hard and one that works sustainably?
Think about every skill you've developed in this course. Your coaching conversations, GROW model, development planning, performance management, and change leadership all serve one ultimate purpose: creating conditions where people flourish long-term.
Resilient teams aren't built by accident - they're cultivated through intentional leadership practices.

How do your coaching skills contribute to preventing team burnout?
Burnout shows up before people quit or crash. Watch for: cynicism about work purpose, exhaustion despite adequate rest, decreased empathy for colleagues, or declining quality despite same effort.
These are system warning signals, not character flaws. They indicate environment issues, not people problems.
Engagement Message
What early burnout signs have you noticed in yourself or others?
Research identifies three core factors that prevent burnout: sustainable workload, meaningful autonomy, and genuine recognition. Notice these aren't about ping-pong tables or pizza parties.
People need to feel their work is manageable, they have control over how they do it, and their contributions matter.
Engagement Message
Which of these three factors is strongest in your current team environment?
Sustainable workload doesn't mean easy work - it means appropriately challenging work with realistic deadlines and adequate resources. Use your coaching skills to help team members prioritize and say no to non-essential tasks.
