Hi, I’m Michelle Courtney Berry, The Workplace Doc™

From Lived Experience to Empirical Evidence

Long before I began tracking workplace culture metrics as a graduate student in organizational and risk communication at Cornell University and current doctoral scholar in leadership at LSU Shreveport, I witnessed the physical and organizational toll of complex environments firsthand and as a wellness coach and critical incident stress expert for clients worldwide. I know what it means to operate in structures where burnout is treated as individual character flaw rather than something systemic.

My journey from navigating spaces to serving as a two-time TEDx and encore SXSW speaker, print and broadcast journalist, and executive advisor to some of our world’s greatest thought leaders and institutions is what encouraged me to look deeper than standard HR platitudes. That’s the reason I founded The Workplace Doc™ which draws on my original mixed-methods national study (N=186) that reframes “quiet quitting” as valuable data on employee coping.

I didn’t just survive embedded systemic issues in workplace cultures —I decoded them. Today, I combine that lived insight with solid organizational data to equip leadership teams with the precise diagnostic tools to interrupt burnout culture.
