Digital Fatigue and Burnout :  An increasing concern for many leaders of today. Explore the topic developed with 25 years of research with Founder and CEO of Bridging Distance.

The rise of digitalization, particularly the widespread use of digital devices and 
social media, has led to a significant increase in digital fatigue and burnout, 
impacting individuals' mental health, productivity, and overall well-being. In 
turn, this affects companies in many ways, yet all too often is unspoken and 
not addressed, further complicating individual performance and 
engagement. 
 
Join us for a session where we will share our research findings and discuss 
how individuals and leaders can work to overcome digital fatigue that can 
lead to burnout. 
 
Objectives: 
Understand the landscape of Digital Fatigue and Burnout 
Review a model of different types of digital fatigue 
Learn to recognize symptoms of digital fatigue that can lead to burnout 
Identify factors that can cause digital fatigue 
Trace the path from fatigue to burnout 
Learn tips and tools to mitigate digital fatigue 
 
Presenters: 
Stefanie Heiter, Founder and CEO of Bridging Distance
