THIS WEEK’S FOCUS
How close are you to PM burnout? (Score yourself in 3 minutes)
Welcome to Success Factors Discovery, your weekly email for enjoying projects + delivering with confidence.
Hello
When we talked last week about the Resource & Leadership Gap, I mentioned how under-resourcing doesn’t just slow delivery, it takes the happiness out of the people overseeing the work.
If you’ve been in that situation, as 50% of PM’s have, you already know: the real danger isn’t just missed deadlines. It’s burnout!
The Problem in stats:
When I first saw the data, I was shocked.
Nearly half of project managers report feeling burned out higher than doctors, teachers, or emergency services.

Burnout isn’t just bad for you, it tanks delivery quality, damages stakeholder trust, and drives good people out of the profession.
If we want to deliver without sacrificing our health, we need to start treating well-being like a project success factor.
