Keynote Address: Let’s Talk About Stress & Burnout, Joy Stories, and Resiliency in Audiology
Stress and burnout have a tremendous impact on physical and mental health. Curiously, audiology is often labeled a low-stress profession based on broad categories of stressors considered across diverse careers. However, to label an entire profession as low stress diminishes the lived experience of individual audiologists who experience stress and burnout in the workplace that impacts their professional caregiving role and quality of life. This talk will describe stress and burnout, provide approaches to build resiliency in the workplace, and share audiologists’ joy stories that serve to remind us of the powerful positive impact we have on our patients.
Diana Emanuel, PhD, CCC-A, is a professor in the Speech-Language Pathology & Audiology Department at Towson University. She has 30 years of teaching experience and received the USM Regent’s Award for excellence in teaching. She has 28 years of academic leadership and faculty mentoring experience, serving as founding director of TU’s AuD program and as department chairperson. Her scholarship is eclectic, including textbook, book chapters, journal articles, editorials, tutorials, webinars, and open-access video training (Pure Tone Hearing Screening in Schools). Her current research focus is the Lived Experience of the Audiologist project, an exploration of the rich perspectives of audiologists.
