The Way Out of Burnout
Most people assume workplace burnout is the result of too much stress. The Way Out of Burnout challenges this belief, revealing how burnout often emerges from the emotional scripts we perform to be liked, respected, or seen as strong.
Blending raw storytelling, psychological insight, and practical frameworks developed over 20 years of work with leaders across the world, Rabih El Khodr offers a roadmap for breaking free from survival-driven behaviours and returning to authenticity.
A powerful guide for anyone seeking alignment, presence, and purpose, The Way Out of Burnout (Manuscripts Press, coming 2026) is both a wake-up call and a path forward, helping leaders succeed without losing themselves in the process.
