The managers who used to bring energy and push back productively have gone quiet, and the ones you cannot afford to lose are already looking. This blog explains what is actually behind the burnout &#38; what has to change structurally before any re-engagement effort will stick with a team, a department, &#38; an institution.]]></description><link>https://www.gamblinconsults.com/post/what-to-do-when-your-managers-are-burned-out-and-checking-out</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6aa29d557a26009d14451f4e</guid><pubDate>Mon, 15 Jun 2026 07:00:00 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/nsplsh_9f66f14019aa49afab8f994911df7ec5~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Gamblin Consults</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[How to Turn Community Data into a Policy the Council Will Vote For]]></title><description><![CDATA[You have the data.
