Your employees are feeling unfulfilled in their work. How can you help them find meaning?

Um eine gemeinsame Vision zum Leben zu erwecken muss vor Allem die Frage "Warum wir das tun" Allen nachhaltig vermittelt werden. Dabei geht es um eine Mission, die über die Ertragswünsche des Unternehmens herausreichen sollte und Anderen oder der Gesellschaft eine Beitrag schenken sollte für Verbesserung. So kann eine Unternehmens-Initiative wir für Alle und damit unbändige Kraft entfacht werden. Als Beispiel sei der Beitrag für weniger Treibhausgasemissionen, zur Behebung der Arbeitsmarktkrise oder zu Verbesserung der Energieeffizienz genannt, aber auch zur Integration von jung und alt, Materialersparnis oder aber die Integration mehrerer gesellschaftlicher Schichten, einfachere Bedienbarkeit oder grössere Autonomie

To help employees find meaning, empower them to own their work. This empowerment boosts confidence, as autonomy signals trust and respect. Support their development with new skill training and encourage idea sharing. Recognize their efforts; it validates their role and inspires further innovation. Such investment in their growth fosters a workplace where employees feel genuinely valued, leading to increased satisfaction and a stronger, more connected team.

lassen Sie Ihre Mitarbeiter gemeinsam entwickeln, welchen Beitrag das Team zum Gesamtziel anbieten kann und dann entsprechend verbindliche Zusagen in Jahresfrist zu formulieren, die in die Zusammenarbeit eingebracht werden können.

We need to see each other more in the workplace as human-beings not human-doings. As a leader writing personal notes to recognize accomplishments, celebrating birthdays, knowing when a team member is going through obstacles and offering respect and compassion goes a long way. Do you start calls with an agenda and push right through the work or do you take six minutes to ask people how their weekend went, what their plans are for the holidays, what kind of puppy did they get or how their aging parent is doing? Humanize the workplace more- be a great place to work- mentor and be mentored - Julie S Kantor, Founder Twomentor.com

Prioritising employee wellbeing isn't just a buzzword, tick a box, marketing tactic—it's essential for creating a workplace where people feel valued and motivated. When companies offer flexible work arrangements, wellness programs, leadership and mentoring opportunities, it shows they care about their employees' happiness and success both at work and in their personal lives. These initiatives aren't just about getting more work done; they're about creating an environment where individuals can grow, feel happier, set goals that matter to them, and truly enjoy what they do. Don't discount the importance of this, when done well with qualified wellness professionals

Helfen Sie nicht nur in der Festlegung der Teamziele, sondern versuchen Sie die Entwicklung zu den anvisierten Zwischenzielen auch messbar und für alle erkennbar zu machen. Nichts ist motivierender als am Ende einer Woche zu sehen, das man gemeinsam 5 von 100 Einheiten weiter in Richtung Ziel vorangekommen ist

I would add that it's helpful to ask your staff what their personal goals and aspirations are for their careers and what they feel is missing in their current roles to reach these objectives. Fulfillment comes from satisfying your personal aspirations, and in order to understand how to provide the right environment or opportunity for your staff to do so, you have to first understand what THEY want to work towards. Only then will they feel like they have OWNERSHIP over their career and will feel more inclined to provide feedback and engage.

Ab und zu ist es wichtig, sich gemeinsam vorzustellen, wie es sich anfühlen wird, wenn die Zwischenziele erreicht sind. Was sich dann deutlich wahrnehmbar verändert hat und wie positiv sich diese Wirkung für alle Beteiligten entfaltet. So sind auch kleinere Durststrecken gut gemeinsam zu meistern.

Try letting your team members interact with your clients who are having positive results from your business. I am always amazed at the excitement I see when clients share with team members the positive impact they are having. Hope this helps 🏴☠️✌️
