When over achievement becomes expected

It happens without you realizing it. You stay late to finish a project. You take an early morning meeting to accommodate someone in a different time zone. You pick up extra work when a coworker goes out sick. Suddenly you realize you are working ninety-hour weeks and are exhausted.

 

You try to talk to your boss but they aren't much help. As you try to get stuff off of your plate people start complaining that you aren't don't your job. You are no longer seen as an overachiever. Working yourself to death has become expected. Now what?

 

Listen in as Wayne Buckhanan, Karen Loomis, Simon Coles and I discuss this slippery slope and how you might get out of it.
