خلاصة:
Perfectionism is often considered a virtue, especially in the workplace. However, research shows that the pressure an individual exerts on themselves for flawless performance will ultimately only lead to burnout. In this way, perfectionism is not considered a good measure of success. Voltaire, a French writer, says about this: 'Perfection is a good enemy.' Voltaire, who has been a staunch critic of existentialist perfectionism, has dedicated a large part of his professional life to attacking such a view. Generally speaking, perfectionism is a standard that can never be achieved and will ultimately bring nothing but frustration to those who strive in this direction.

Common Fears The effects of perfectionism as a personality trait with extremely high standards, obsessive nature, and accompanied by intense self-criticism, have always affected individuals in an organization.
This is considered a common trait, and the probability that you yourself know a manager with this characteristic closely is not low, or a colleague who is extremely careful not to make a mistake, a teammate who severely blames themselves for the poor performance of the team, or a child who becomes deeply upset and restless because they did not complete their school assignments on time.
What was noteworthy in the psychologists' analysis mentioned is that the conscious thoughts and feelings that center around perfectionist managers and employees, and are related to the fear of imperfection and mistakes, have a relatively large positive effect on the level of burnout of individuals in organizations.
A Sense of Slavery in the Workplace Another explanation that can be provided for the close connection between perfectionism and burnout in work environments is that employees may sometimes feel trapped in their job positions.
They have a tendency toward discomfort and depression Instead of enjoying the resources they have, perfectionist managers grieve over why they do not reach their desired level in their organization or even their personal lives, and this causes them to be somewhat depressed all the time.
According to Kaplan, first ask yourself, "Is the level of self-awareness of these individuals sufficient for them to know whether they are capable of doing this and whether they have the motivation to learn?" Of course, perfectionist managers, like everyone else, do not change overnight.
