Looking deeper into why Simone Biles walked away—and how she got there—has important messages for employers looking to protect their top performers.
If ever someone was subject to unrealistic expectations, it would be Simone Biles. But what happens when we strive so hard to meet those expectations? And then fail to live up to them? Burnout, followed by disappointment. Are there unrealistic expectations on certain parts of your workforce?
Employer support: Burnout in the workplace—if not due to a lack of sufficient headcount—can be partly managed by saying"thank you" more often. Gratitude does wonders to boost morale. Leaders should also signal the appropriate work/life balance—one easy way is to set expectations about working hours. Finally, more and more companies are adding wellbeing days, where the entire company switches off so that people don't stress about coming back to a full inbox and can truly recharge.
Employer support: Creating safe and inclusive environments is everyone's job, but policies such as zero bullying and acknowledging failed ideas are a great start. Showing employees what healthy conflict looks like can also empower people to speak up because they know disagreements will be handled civilly.Covid-19 shone a light on how important mental health is and made workplace conversations easier to have, but there's still a long way for many businesses to go.
