CEO burnout can be a tricky thing to self-diagnosis. Days, weeks, even months may go by before a CEO or business owner recognizes that he or she is overly stressed, close to the end of their tether, and exhibiting behavior that adversely impacts the workplace. 

Compounding the problem is the tendency among many A-type personalities never to admit that they have reached a stage of burnout and may need help repairing the damage.

But not recognizing signs of burnout and/or declining to address them can put virtually everything in the business at risk. Why? Because burnout leads to exhaustion and poor decision-making, which in turn threatens a company’s well-being (and that of its employees). In a state of burnout, it’s not easy to see things clearly, or to apply one’s well-honed capacity to analyze an issue and resolve it. 

And when these leadership traits are compromised, bad things can happen.
