Leads go home and take your reports with you
summary
Workaholism presents like an addiction, causes burnout, low job satisfaction, health complaints and poorer social life, and it costs firms about 1.5 times the annual salary to replace someone who quits. People who are engaged stop from enjoyment while workaholics use the enough stop rule. A simple intervention — a manager daring an employee to switch off the phone one Saturday — exposes withdrawal, triggers acceptance, sets boundaries, and produces lasting change toward the enjoyment stop rule.
