Are you in a people-helping ministry like teaching, counselling, social work or healthcare? Then watch out for burnout, warns Mutheu E. Talitwala in her book, Burnout.

In May 2019, WHO recognised burnout as a syndrome “resulting from chronic workplace stress that has not been successfully managed”.
