Is rust-out damaging your career prospects?

The underwhelmed cousin of burnout, rust-out could be preventing you from achieving your professional goals.

There are many reasons why we fall out of love with our jobs: a bad boss who has no boundaries when it comes to contacting you out of office hours; being asked to return to the office (and commute) five days a week; a colleague who chews especially loudly while eating lunch at their desk.

But if boredom tops your list and its consequence is that you’re feeling apathetic towards your job and you don’t really care about it anymore, you could be suffering from rust-out.

In need of motivation

The underwhelmed cousin of burnout, rust-out occurs when you’re feeling so unmotivated by the work you’ve been tasked to do, you simply cannot bring yourself to do it.

And while burnout usually alludes to an overly packed schedule and never-ending to-do list, rust-out occurs when the opposite is happening—it typically points to bad time management or team structuring that isn’t helping you achieve your professional, goals or giving you the impetus to go after them yourself.

Best foot forward

So what can you do to alleviate the symptoms of rust-out if you think you’ve fallen into its trap?

The first thing to do is ask to speak to your manager so you can start the process of addressing the key issues that are making it more difficult for you to do your job, and formulate a plan to rectify this.

Being transparent about how you’re feeling isn’t an admission of failure so a good manager should take your concerns on board and work with you to improve things.

Next, avail of any learning and development opportunities your organisation offers or ask if there is budget to do external training. Upskilling and exploring new ways of doing things will help reinvigorate your passion for your chosen field, and will also help you prioritise what you want to work on in the future.

Honing your skills is also a good exit strategy if leaving your current job for a new one is on the cards. Even a short online course will make your CV more robust and up-to-date.
