Education experts published five evidence‑informed strategies to help business‑school students succeed without burning out. The guidance emphasizes process‑oriented goals, translating constraints into concrete plans, minimum‑viable starts to defeat avoidance, scaffolded teamwork, and structured feedback cycles. Authors argue that these tactics—rooted in educational psychology and mindfulness—reduce cognitive load and improve retention, particularly for adult learners balancing work, study and personal commitments. Practical examples include weekly micro‑goals, backward planning for large projects, and clear rubrics to reduce ambiguity. Program directors and faculty should consider integrating these approaches into syllabi and student‑support offerings to improve completion rates and wellbeing among high‑achieving, stress‑prone cohorts.
