Preventing event management burnout is important, but taking care of yourself before your tasks seems impossible. ?

Unrealistic expectations.Constant interruptions. Loss of control. Tight deadlines. These are just some stressors for planners. It’s no surprise their career ranks as one of the most stressful, up there with law enforcement and airline pilots. 

?? Losing control during stressful situations affects your mental and physical health, productivity and focus, and the successful outcome of any event. 

Here are 7 tips to prevent event burnout:

? Create work/life boundaries. Keep working at work. Set reasonable deadlines. Quiet your inner critic.
? Use event planning software to help manage workflow and budgets.
? Get help – consider freelancers – and encourage group self-care activities to foster team engagement and satisfaction. 
? Delegate tasks. Being a control freak leads to burnout. Let your team assist with tasks and communicate often. 
? Schedule daily self-care. Take a walk or vacation. Meditate. Find creative outlets that allow you to disconnect from work and stay motivated. 
? Find your strengths. Identify what fulfills you at work and delegate/outsource what doesn’t bring you joy. 
? Give yourself time. Before you jump into the next task or event, allow time ¬to clear your mind, enjoy a destination, recharge your battery. 

The payoff:
? You learn how to achieve a healthier work/life balance and keep stress in check
? Your event partners, colleagues and customers see a calm, collected professional
