If You Build It, They Will Thrive: How to Coach Your Team to Success
The Great Resignation has turned into many things: a labour movement, a shift toward remote work, and a statement against toxic workplaces. Perhaps you joined the Great Resignation, leaving your 9–5 to pursue your dreams of entrepreneurship.
Or perhaps you’re a current business owner wondering why it’s so hard to keep employees.
In any situation, the Great Resignation has led many people to reexamine their career choices. And what it really comes down to is how well they feel aligned with their work.

My 5 Ps toward entrepreneurial freedom are Process, Product, Profit, People, and Purpose. The last two are closely related. When your people align with your purpose, they’re more likely to stay on your team. And I like the word “team” because as a people-focused business owner, you’re essentially their coach.
So, how can you coach your employees toward success? And during the Great Resignation, how can you avoid becoming a workplace that people want to leave?
