It's lonely at the top. Unaddressed isolation and burnout could be contributing to healthcare's high turnover rates, one health system CEO told Becker's.

Healthcare leaders have the highest turnover rates of all major industries, with 75% of executives considering leaving their profession due to burnout, Jeff Comer, PsyD, told Becker's. However, most books, webinars and initiatives to solve the issue are geared toward clinicians. Burnout accounts for 70% of leadership turnover — compared to 40% of staff turnover — but few executives speak out on the exhaustion they experience.
