The Burnout Report

The implications go beyond the workplace and school campus, as we found in this report; indeed, Ys and Zs feel burnout in their personal lives as well. They’ve become inundated by the always on nature of media, the constant access they and their friends have to one another via their digital devices, and the pressure to craft highly active and “shareable” lives. Their personal level of burnout is impacting their media habits, their social habits, and even their attitudes toward medicine as they seek to combat their burnout.

For brands, youth’s latest struggle presents an opportunity to provide help and solutions—and earn their loyalty in return. As with the last major health crisis that spawned the green juice-fueled wellness movement, brands need to enter this space thoughtfully and with a deep understanding of the causes and cultural context in which young people are existing. Available exclusively for members, The Burnout Report helps brands be among the first to address this growing need among young people to combat—and not increase—their sense of being burnt out.

Available exclusively for Cassandra members, The Burnout Report identifies the sources of youth’s burnout, how they are reacting by evolving their habits, and how brands can come to their rescue by providing an antidote rather than an amplification of this feeling. Open it to:
