This course contains the use of artificial intelligence.

1,226 tools against workplace stress and burnout in one course: 899 ready-to-use files, surveys, scripts and checklists, 20 services and apps shown on screen, plus 307 models and methods.

Open a lecture, take the tool, use it in this week's one-on-one, team check or wellbeing report.

Why burnout is noticed too late

Nobody announces that they are burning out. Output holds for a while, then quality slips, then a good person resigns or goes on long sick leave, and only then does anyone ask what happened. The company responds with a yoga class and a webinar. The workload, the unclear priorities and the manager who never asks stay the same, and the next person follows.

What changes after this course

You see it early and act on causes. Warning signs you can check in a one-on-one. A short questionnaire that measures exhaustion. A calculation that shows leadership what burnout costs. A risk assessment that finds where the pressure comes from. Scripts for the conversation with someone who is struggling. And a way to measure whether what you changed is working.

Who is teaching

I am Mike, the #1 HR instructor on Udemy, with 1,800,000+ course enrollments from 170,000 students, and the author of about 200 books on Amazon. I built the people system at Preply as it became a unicorn and worked at Wargaming, iDeals and Alfa-Bank across 20 years in HR. I hold PHRi, SHRM-CP and HCI sHRBP certifications and represent HRCI in Eastern Europe.

I have experienced burnout myself and learned to manage it with help from experts. At 28, I was so absorbed in work that I worked weekends too, and it wore me out. At 30, I brought in different experts and learned how to manage this. At Preply, colleagues and I often took work conversations outside for a walk, discussing useful things while fresh air gave me energy for the day. This experience informs the resilience tools in this course.

How to use the course

Start with the four core sections: they take you from recognising burnout to measuring a wellbeing programme. Then treat the rest as a reference library. Section and lecture titles show how many tools are inside, and each lecture description lists them by name, so you can find the right tool before the conversation you are preparing for.

  • 196 lectures across 30 sections, 103 hours
  • 240 downloadable resources: lecture presentations and working files
  • 1,226 tools across the lessons, ready to use with your own teams
  • Lifetime access to all materials
  • Active instructor support in the Q&A section
  • A Udemy Certificate of Completion
