Long story short: Lead your employees into the future

HR leaders have spent the last few years prioritizing other people — often at the expense of their own mental well-being. Almost all HR professionals are burned out: research from workplace communication app Workvivo found that 98% of HR professionals have experienced feelings of burnout, and 79% are considering leaving their jobs. 

Addressing these issues means that HR leaders need to “put our oxygen masks on first,” says Julia Anas, chief people officer at Qualtrics, an employee experience platform. To do that, Anas shares how she’s leading by example, and how the pandemic gave her an opportunity to get vulnerable with her team.
