Burnout Syndrome and Its Process

Summary/Abstract: The burnout syndrome, its causes and development as well as its diagnosis, treatment and prevention has been the object of many inquiries and surveys both psychological as well as medical since the distant past. This problem was dealt with by the Greek and Egyptian physicians and philosophers long before our times and they described it as a loss of motivation due to the emotional deprivation which could lead to the symptoms visible in the physical part of human body. The current definitions and theories define it as a psychosomatic illness that is the result of a continuous long lasting exposure to socio-interactive stressors in the environment, where the individual undergoes self-realization. This article deals with the description of the causes of this syndrome, it characterizes the different stages of the burnout process, the signals and the symptoms of this syndrome arising in the working environment. This article presents the results and lessons learned in the diagnosis of this burnout syndrome in the managerial profession. It was created within the VEGA 1/0053/12 project.
