Category: Franchise Development
Michael McFall is the co-Founder and co-CEO of BIGGBY COFFEE(goes to new website) as well as author of the Inc. Original book GRIND. 
Work has long been a source of stress, anxiety and tension. According to a Mental Health America report(goes to new website), 83% of survey respondents said they felt emotionally drained from work. An employee survey conducted by Deloitte(goes to new website) found that 77% of respondents have “experienced employee burnout at their current job,” and the American Psychological Association(goes to new website) reports that “burnout and stress are at all-time highs across professions.”
It’s easy to understand the causes of this. Consecutive pandemic years, shifting work arrangements and social and political turbulence are exacerbating existing factor like the pressure to be “always on,” longer and less productive work times, unmitigated performance expectations and more.
