A Company Based on Joy with Rich Sheridan

What is Rich's definition of burnout?

Burnout is where you're there, but you're not there. You're at work in body but not in mind.

Here are a few of the things you'll hear about in this episode:

  • How a company that focuses on joy works

  • How to avoid the cycle of overwork that leads to burnout

  • Why you should look at systems rather than people when things go wrong

About Rich:

Menlo Innovations CEO Richard Sheridan became disillusioned in the middle of his career in the chaotic technology industry. He had an all-consuming thought: things can be better. Much better. He had to find a way. Why couldn't a workplace be filled with camaraderie, human energy, creativity, and productivity?

Ultimately, Rich co-founded Menlo Innovations in 2001 to end human suffering in the workplace. Menlo's unique approach to custom software creation is so surprisingly different that 3,000 people a year travel from around the world just to see how they do it.
