The book
Lannoo Campus · Anouk Doore & Daan Annemans · October 6, 2026
Train your energy and focus in a world that keeps accelerating. The strategic handbook for the modern manager, HR professional, and entrepreneur: a grounded, philosophical, and directly applicable compass.
Why this book
Who it's for
The modern manager, HR professional, and entrepreneur who notices their own schedule, and their team's, growing fuller and more fragmented by the day.
What you'll learn
How to structurally reduce technostress, protect mental focus, and prevent burnout-related absence, with concrete frameworks instead of vague advice.
Why this book is different
Philosophical depth rooted in moral science, combined with directly applicable, grounded tools. Not another quick-fix time management book.
From book to practice
Want to go further than the book alone? The approach translates directly into a keynote, team workshop, or 1-on-1 coaching program.
"Daan Annemans and Anouk Doore expose an important blind spot: leaders appear to be most in control of their own work and schedule, but in reality belong to the highest-risk group for chronic digital overload. By combining insights from sports, recovery, and rest with insights on digital wellbeing and technology design, Digitale Fitheid voor Leiders offers a practical guide that gives leaders the tools to build a sustainable relationship with technology, at the individual, team, and organizational level."
