  Two pioneering researchers identify key causes of workplace burnout and reveal what managers can do to promote increased productivity and health. 
   
   
   
  Citing a wealth of research data and drawing on illustrative anecdotes, The Burnout Challenge shows how organizations can change to promote sustainable productivity. Christina Maslach and Michael P. Leiter provide useful tools for identifying the signs of employee burnout, most often exhaustion, cynicism, and ineffectiveness. They also advise managers on assembling and interpreting worker self-evaluation surveys, which can reveal workplace problems and potential solutions. And when it comes to implementing change, Maslach and Leiter offer practical, evidence-driven guidance. The key, they argue, is to begin with less-taxing changes that employees nonetheless find meaningful, seeding the ground for more thorough reforms in the future. 
   
   
   
  Experts estimate that more than $500 billion and 550 million workhours are lost annually to on-the-job stress, much of it caused by dysfunctional work environments. As priorities and policies shift across workplaces, The Burnout Challenge provides pragmatic, creative, and cost-effective solutions to improve employee efficiency, health, and happiness.

  Every deal begins long before the first number is spoken. The Chemistry of Agreement reveals the neuroscience behind persuasion, exploring how emotion, biology, and trust shape human negotiation. Through vivid storytelling and grounded psychology, it uncovers the hidden signals that govern influence—how tone alters perception, how silence disarms resistance, and how the right phrase rewires conflict into collaboration. Blending behavioral science with practical insight, it shows that great negotiators aren’t born—they’re trained in empathy, clarity, and timing.
