The Hidden Cost of Doing More with Less: How to Recharge Your Exhausted Workforce Before They Walk
Executives are under immense pressure to drive growth while pursuing cost-efficiency measures. The painful, emotional consequence of this is an exhausted workforce. Alarmingly, 81% of executives admit their employees are currently being assigned tasks above their role and training level. This is the very definition of "doing more with less," and the hidden cost is employee burnout, rising leave requests, and crippling turnover.
Burnout is no longer a personal problem; it is a financial risk. Organizations that prioritize engagement see 23% higher profitability, while companies that fail to address burnout lose productivity and incur high recruiting costs.
CoreTactic: Business Coaching for Sustainable Performance
CoreTactic's business coaching provides the framework for executives to pivot from a culture of exhaustion to one of high-performance and resilience.
Leading with Empathy and Modeling Boundaries: Employees need to feel comfortable using their allotted time off without fear. Our executive coaching focuses on training leaders to set the tone, model healthy boundaries, and actively discourage off-hour communication. Leaders must create a culture where life coaching is seen as a strategic tool, not a last resort.
Strategic Investment in Manager Training: Managers are the first line of defense for spotting burnout, but they need support. CoreTactic helps executives invest in manager training around emotional intelligence and how to conduct meaningful "How are you really doing?" check-ins. Equipping leaders with effective coaching techniques is crucial, as manager disengagement is linked to a global productivity decline.
Building Operational Flexibility: When leave requests spike, cross-training, succession planning, and staff pooling are essential to prevent core teams from suffering. Our business coaching helps you implement these proactive retention strategies.
Focusing on Personal Well-being (Life Coaching): Employees expect benefits that reflect their individual needs, including mental wellbeing support and financial wellness coaching. Our life coaching principles extend to advising on a flexible benefits strategy that offers choices like lifestyle spending accounts and mental health resources to address the personal nature of burnout.
The return on investing in your people is real and measurable. CoreTactic helps you build a workplace where employees are supported holistically, leading to stronger loyalty, morale, and performance.
