Researchers propose that leadership style contributes to employees' well-being, which impacts employee productivity. Organizations and leaders must address the causes of burnout and promote techniques employees can use to mitigate burnout, such as employee participation in recovery experiences. Recovery experiences are non-work activities that create positive outlooks and restore the energy needed to focus on one's work. This literature review examines current research in employee recovery experiences, conservation of resource theory (COR), burnout, and transformational leadership theory. Studying burnout through the lens of COR shows how important resource gain and recovery activities are to healthy employees and their job performance within the organization. The research reviewed suggests that transformational and transactional leadership styles have higher probabilities of promoting employee participation in recovery experiences than passive avoidant leadership style. The literature consistently showed burnout as a significant organizational phenomenon negatively affecting productivity, employee well-being, and turnover rates. The literature revealed that mitigating burnout happens through participation in recovery experiences. The literature on leadership styles supports the assumption that leaders play a significant role in employee well-being, group identity, and organizational climate. Leaders who desire to mitigate employee burnout will benefit from research that links transformational leadership style behaviors and employee participation in recovery activities.</p>","PeriodicalId":73198,"journal":{"name":"HCA healthcare journal of medicine","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11249184/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141629453","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Lifestyle Medicine (LM), an evidence-based practice using behavioral interventions to treat, prevent, and reverse certain chronic conditions, can achieve this goal. Implementing small changes in the workplace that support lifestyle medicine has a butterfly effect on both workplace and community well-being. Furthermore, the health of health care workers (HCWs) and patients improves, and health care costs decrease. This can be done with LM wellness programs or LM training for HCWs. LM wellness programs help the individual HCWs' and patients' well-being through the implementation of the 6 pillars of lifestyle medicine (nutrition, diet, stress reduction, social connection, avoiding/reducing toxins, restorative sleep) on an institutional level. LM initiatives, like LM training, help HCWs and their patients embark on this journey of optimal well-being, disease prevention, treatment, or reversal. Aligning policies to support evidence-based lifestyle changes that improve mood and stress reduction would support restorative rest, leaving HCWs less drained and allowing for more energy to be spent devoted to other lifestyle pillars. The Lifestyle Medicine Residency Curriculum is an example of an LM training program that leads to successful lifestyle change in residents' lives, improving their ability to coach patients. Finally, health care delivery that supports lifestyle medicine, such as shared medical appointments, is in alignment with the trend towards a value-based system for the improvement of public health.</p>","PeriodicalId":73198,"journal":{"name":"HCA healthcare journal of medicine","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11249177/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141629452","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The distinction is important because volition is not synonymous with independence, and providing freedom can be at odds with strategies that provide true autonomy support. This, in turn, can contribute to the stress, maladjustment, and resident burnout that are already prevalent in medicine.
