In this EDGE - Beyond The Stage 1:1, Neha Sangwan explains why burnout in high-performing leaders often comes from being highly externally focused while tuning out internal signals. She shares early warning signs CEOs can track across “physical, mental, emotional, social, spiritual energy,” and offers a practical boundary framework - moving from rigid or porous extremes to healthy, nuanced boundaries like “the cells in our body.” She also gives a simple communication shift for high-pressure moments: regulate first, then lead with curiosity.
Takeaways:
• Burnout often starts when leaders override internal signals while the external world moves faster than biology can handle.
• Burnout equals boundaries” - the goal is nuanced boundaries, not rigid or porous extremes.
• In pressure moments: regulate your physiology, then “move into asking a question” and “get curious, not furious.”
