One of the things I think we can do that I think is a really positive thing to both for the individual and the organization is focusing on the zone of genius, right?
Because if we are working in that space that we are off the charts brilliant at, what we can contribute usually far outpaces what others can contribute in that space and what we can contribute in other zones.
And so it just requires less energy and effort on the body and that in and of itself can shift burnout.
And organizations like that, right?
Because we're not saying like,
Hey, you know, shift to only working five hours a day or three days a week.
We're saying, actually, this pivot into your zone of genius will serve the individual and will serve the organization.
So I find that that's a really positive change and a great way to language it.
The other one that I have that, you know, I think sometimes is a tougher pill to swallow is the urgency culture.
So much of the time we operate as if everything is urgent and it's actually not true.
Few things are urgent, right?
And it's important for us to prioritize and address those things.
But if we operate as if everything is urgent and we're constantly sprinting, that has such an impact on the body.
And so I think shifting urgency culture is another really big one.
That was so brilliantly said.
And I think that I think I used to be that person.
Like when I think about my marketing career, I was so trained to put out fires.
Then I sought out the fires.
Right.
But then you become addicted to chaos.
