Las Vegas here we come! The return of in person events is so very exciting and with it comes wonderful new opportunities to get connected with WASFAA members all over our region.
Our Management and Leadership Institute participants were lucky enough to hear from Jen Westra during this year's program and we are so excited to share an article she wrote for you all on preventing burnout. I know with the end of the academic year in site I could use some tips before our office jumps into summer packaging.
Please don't forget that you may also view all these articles on our website within the News Archive found here. If you have any information you would like to share with membership or have questions, do not hesitate to reach out at communications@wasfaa.org.

10 Things to Know About Burnout
The topic of burnout seems to be everywhere these days, and for good reason: between two+ years of pandemic living (that feel more like twenty), the Great Resignation, and mounting global and economic turmoil, it can be exhausting just trying to make it through the day, let alone juggle ever-increasing workloads with continually diminishing resources.
