The Influence of Employee Burnout Syndrome on the Expression of Organizational Dissent

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of employee burnout syndrome on organizational dissent. Two hundred nine employees from various organizations in the midwestern United States participated. Results indicated employees who report high levels of emotional exhaustion, feelings of failure, and isolation from fellow workers report low levels of articulated dissent and avoid using latent dissent. Displaced dissent did not significantly contribute to the equation.
