As we start a new year we naturally turn to pondering our goals. 2021 goals seem even more significant considering the global crises presented by 2020. As we look a hopeful new date: January 1, 2021, we may be filled with ideas for new directions, aspirations, and resolutions.
Resolutions, what we call goals the rest of the year, can however generate internal conflict and imbalance. We want to strive for something better, yet at the same time it is vital to our mental health to be content, and to enjoy and harvest what we have already created. We then find ourselves toggling between contentment or striving, in a world that over-emphasizes nonstop striving. The skewing of balance toward constant achievement can lead to a constant state of dissatisfaction, making us prone to burnout.
What does the research tell us about burnout?
Our collective resolution to prevent and treat burnout together is then much needed in 2021.
We invite you to ignite this resolution with our first public webinar of 2021: Buffering Against Burnout. Stanford psychologist and board certified leadership coach, Dr. Jacinta M. Jiménez, will reveal key science-backed steps to address burnout in uncertain times, as well as a process to help your clients buffer against burnout.
We wish you a year of aspiration, growth, and contentment, sans burnout. The IOC Team

Dr. Arnold’s research suggests there are many sitting in executive and senior-leader roles feeling and experiencing this exact phenomenon....
In this talk, we’ll explore a series of experiments about emotion whose conclusions seem to defy common sense. We’ll learn that common sense is wrong, and has been for 2000 years. In the process, we’ll dispel several of the most widespread fictions about emotions that lurk in boardrooms, classrooms and bedrooms around the world. We’ll then explore a radically new scientific understanding of what emotions are and how they work.
