Management Tips For CEOs

If you're facing burnout, do you slow down? It sounds counterintuitive, however, if you are running just to stand still then something is wrong. You need to delegate and collaborate. Let your team work for you. Give them more control.

Don't run to stand still.

Signs of burnout

• Regular feelings of stress and anxiety
• Not getting enough sleep; low energy and exhaustion
• Running out of time, always in a time crunch
• Excessive criticism of yourself and others 
• No work breaks. Not remembering the last time you had a vacation
• Lack of physical exercise and/or an increase in physical illness

When signs of burnout crop up lean on project planning and team collaboration. With Accelo, it's easy for you to take a deep breath, slow down, and assign work to members of your team. Specifically, using a Project Product will allow you to work on project planning, tracking, and collaboration in one central place.
