How Deans Can Help Combat Burnout and Support Faculty Well-Being

Request our partner intensive for a deep dive on how to mitigate faculty burnout with an EAB research expert.

Faculty burnout is not a new phenomenon in higher education. But, across the pandemic, additional stressors and challenges augmented many faculty pain points that already existed pre-pandemic, further exacerbating burnout. This created new urgency among academic leaders to recognize that burnout is a workplace problem, and they have a unique role to play in ensuring that the academic affairs workplace environment is one that actively promotes well-being and combats burnout.

EAB offers an expert-facilitated partner intensive that convenes deans to discuss the long-term strategic importance of bolstering faculty well-being support. The session will also provide tools and resources to help deans fulfill their role in building a workplace that actively combats burnout.
