Project managers face relentless pressure: tight deadlines, scope creep, competing stakeholder
demands, and the expectation to deliver flawlessly while navigating constant change. Yet 66% of
professionals report moderate to severe burnout, quietly eroding the performance and well-being of
even the most capable leaders.

With 20 years in high-pressure technology environments and extensive project leadership experience,
Serban Mare understands how sustained pressure depletes project leaders, leaving them performing at
the top while quietly running on empty behind a mask of capability. Having delivered this session at
PMI Global Summit 2025 and other conferences with consistently strong reviews, Serban brings
proven, practical frameworks specifically designed for the realities PMs face.

This keynote reframes stress as a catalyst for resilience, equips participants with tools to recognize
burnout early in themselves and their teams, and provides an energy management system that works
within real project constraints. Attendees will leave with actionable strategies they can implement
immediately to protect their teams, sustain performance through challenging projects, and lead with
clarity instead of chronic exhaustion. 

 

Testimonial

"This is a rare gem - a burnout presentation that's actually built on solid research rather than feel-good
platitudes. [...] What sets this apart is the blend of hard data with immediately actionable tools. [...]
and it doesn't feel like generic self-help - it feels like practical workplace wellness backed by research."
-The PMI Global Event Speaker Team
