How to network and avoid burnout during the holidays
People often get many invitations to parties and get-togethers towards the festive/holiday season. It can be challenging to decline these invites and stay focused on work. The key is to network strategically to avoid burnout. Networking during the holidays is not just about going out for drinks or attending holiday events but also staying in touch with friends and colleagues in a meaningful way.
The art of asking for help during the vacation
Ask for help can be difficult regardless of whether it is with a personal or professional matter. There are two keys to asking for the help you need:
Be specific in your request.
When someone offers their time and energy, acknowledge what they have done so that they feel appreciated.
Most people think they need to take all their vacation days at once, but that's not the case. Instead, try taking a few days off here and there throughout the year and ensure you get enough time for yourself and family activities. People tend to burn out from overwork and stress. Some of the best ways to combat this problem include taking a vacation every month or just going on one long weekend trip every year.
