It sure seems like most tech jobs would only need therapy as a means of last resort. Keeping a mindful eye towards burnout and adjusting your response to it based on the type seems like solid advice. I see it as: 1. The complainer: sit down and negotiate a way that person can make a bigger impact that's measurable 2. The avoider: simply try to get this person to do something they are excited about 3. The worn-out individual: this person probably just needs a bit of regular recognition (and no overtime) Personally, I find way more people in categories 1 and 2, though category 3 definitely happens in startup land where people work way too much and only see the mountain in front of them is never getting smaller. Of course I'm being a bit of an armchair manager, but it seems like a fairly decent starting point.
