Authors Dr. Christa Banton and Dr. Jose Garza review related findings of 2023 Career Optimism Index® study
University of Phoenix College of Doctoral Studies has released a new white paper, “Burnout as a Cause for Job Dissatisfaction,” a collaboration between authors Christa Banton, Ed.D., fellow in the University’s Center for Workplace Diversity and Inclusion Research (CWDIR) and Jose Garza, DHA, MBA, fellow, CWDIR.
