An Honest Conversation About Burnout, Capacity, and Staying Connected to Purpose Under Pressure. Staying Connected To Purpose in a Year Of Cuts And Collapse
This 1-hour conversation hosted by Sunflower Communications is designed to be candid, interactive, and grounded in the real challenges we’re all facing. Expect a mix of lived experiences, open prompts, and group discussion.
We’ll explore three key themes:
Burnout: How do we protect energy and morale when the work doesn’t slow down?
Capacity: What does “enough” look like when resources are shrinking?
Purpose: How do we keep teams connected to the mission when survival mode takes over?
You’ll leave with shared language, fresh strategies, and a space to connect with peers who understand what it means to lead under pressure.
Budgets are down. Pressure is up. And for those of us in purpose-driven work, the mission still demands our best.
But in a season of burnout and stretched capacity, the real questions are:
-
How do we protect our energy – and our teams?
-
How do we stay connected to each other when the work feels heavy?
-
How do we hold onto purpose when survival mode takes over?
This roundtable is a space to say the quiet parts out loud and trade honest strategies for leading and supporting teams through tough seasons.
