When to use it

Use it when you feel exhausted or cynical about work and want to identify the cause.

How to apply it
  1. Rate how well each of the six areas matches your needs.
  2. Identify the one or two areas with the biggest mismatch.
  3. Note specific situations that show the mismatch.
  4. Decide which changes are within your control or influence.
  5. Raise a concrete proposal with your manager for the main mismatch.
Tip: Burnout is often a job-design problem, so focus on the work, not just personal coping.
