Based on my own long experience in business, team satisfaction, engagement, and productivity continues to be a challenge. Playing to your strengths improves your overall engagement and productivity, as well as satisfaction and happiness. Enhance intrinsic motivation through coaching.
Un-motivated people are also a huge drain on all resources. That takes less time and gives everyone greater satisfaction. You may be tempted to delegate people issues to human resources specialists, and focus your time on process issues, which are more concrete and specific.
I saw the key ones outlined well in the classic book, “ Creating High Performers ,” by William Dann, a leading coach to experienced CEOs. Your standards for product quality, sales growth, and customer satisfaction must be documented and reviewed prior to results and performance reviews. Top performance is more than skills and effort.

One of the dysfunctions I often see in my coaching and mentoring work with small businesses is team member burnout. Burnout occurs for many when your job demands are too many, the hours are too long, and the resources to handle them are too few. Marty Zwilling First published on Inc.com on 12/2/2022.
Inside the organization, it also pays to offer some of your time for coaching and mentoring to less experienced team members, as an entrée to a supportive relationship. Constant attention to work devices, location, and travel is not humanly sustainable without loss of quality, satisfaction, and productivity. Loners need not apply.
Provide tools and resources as required. The challenge for many bosses is to recognize when their team should be coaching them. If you as a business leader can weather one or two crises, using these recommendations, you will find your brand image and personal image rising, as well as your satisfaction with the role increasing.
Utilize business content curators and coaches. Potential resources available to entrepreneurs are enormous, but often under-utilized. It may include financial gain, but more likely the lasting satisfaction and happiness will result from your legacy of change in technology, or your impact on the social ecology of the world.
To compensate, every visionary entrepreneur needs to find a partner who gets great satisfaction from results, and loves the discipline of making things happen on a day-to-day basis. They often show little empathy for the negative impact this can have on capacity, resources, people, and profitability.
Here is a summary of my recommendations for picking the right battles in a business environment, and how to fight challenges most effectively for satisfaction and growth: Set personal objectives and make your own decisions. Follow your own interests and business insights to increase satisfaction and long-term success.
Recognize limited resources. Too many business people let the daily challenges cause them to revert to emotional and autocratic demands, failure to communicate, and inability to coach and mentor team members. Demonstrate how one key objective addresses your long-term, as well as short-term goals.
Occupational satisfaction. You as a business leader can greatly influence this factor by providing the resources and training to allow team members to do their job better, and appreciate the impact of their work. Intellectual stimulation. Ask for creative thinking, and listen to feedback.
Increase you focus on coaching, training, and mentoring. Every one of you entrepreneurs should recognize the stage in your business where your greatest satisfaction can come, not from more growth, but from the opportunity to share what you have learned with those who follow, and may carry your legacy forward.
