Stress and Burnout
The models for prevention and intervention of brunaut are directed mainly in two directions: group seminars for prevention and individual psychotherapy of the victims. The most important task of group seminars is to make the participants aware of the phenomenon and to help them discover its manifestations both in themselves and in their colleagues. The focus will be on preventative measures because once in one organization, Burnout Syndrome is highly contagious. Like the learned helplessness, the state of Burnout tends to self-support and intensify.
