Why Does Boarding School Create Burnout? | Piers Cross

A few weeks ago I was talking to a friend about his CEO. 

He mentioned that the CEO tried to micromanage everything. 

And that he couldn't stop. And that he was reaching burnout. 

He mentioned that he was South African. 

So I asked, "Did he go to boarding school?" 

He replied, "Yes, I am pretty sure he did." 

So I mentioned boarding school syndrome and that micromanaging everything, trying to control all the details, being hypervigilant, workoholism and consequently burnout were all part of the symptoms. 

And over the years working with public school educated leaders I have seen these traits over and over again. 

So today I delve into why boarding schools create burnout and what we can do to start to rewire our brains. 

Take care, Piers
