Public-sector change and burnout: phases as antecedent, limiting condition, and common consequence
Article Abstract:
Transformational changes within organizations may result in psychological burnout among the employees. According to the phase model of burnout, individuals belong to either one of the eight phases of burnout. Each phase brings about greater stress outcomes, more frequent desire of wanting to leave the company and weaker group cohesiveness. These phases can be viewed as antecedents of change, limiting conditions of change or consequence of change. The phase model, which shows that burnout is a major public-sector dilemma, can be used to guide change programs in the public sector.
