Engaged, Not Exhausted: Preventing Burnout in Creative Work | June 2026 – Cultural & Creative Industries Skillnet

A practical three-hour workshop exploring how creative professionals can stay engaged, energised, and sustainably connected to their work over time.

Cultural & Creative Industries Skillnet offer a practical three-hour workshop exploring how creative professionals can stay engaged, energised, and sustainably connected to their work over time.

Burnout is widely recognised as a growing challenge across the creative sector not only as exhaustion, but as a gradual drift away from meaning, motivation, and connection to the work itself. In complex, freelance and portfolio careers, this often develops quietly through ongoing pressure, imbalance, or misalignment in how work is structured.

This workshop takes a preventive and practice-based approach. Rather than focusing on crisis or recovery, it supports participants to better understand how burnout develops in everyday working life and how it can be recognised and addressed early.

Taking place:

24 June 2026
One-half day
