Training and Education Specialties
Business Development and Entrepreneurial Mentoring
At Satisfactionist Consulting, we love working with entrepreneurs and growing organizations. As a small to medium sized business owner, you don’t have the time or money to make many poor decisions. As you seek to grow and expand your business, let us help by providing coaching and feedback to help organize your business processes and routines, establish or enhance management routines for improved employee goals and objectives, or help develop programs for more effective sales and marketing operations.

Are you challenged with organizing your company resources to meet your clients expectations? Are you struggling to achieve best in class service when it comes to your sales and marketing operations? With more than 20 years of consumer packaged goods experience and a Black Belt in Six Sigma, we believe we can help evaluate your current concerns and work to develop processes and routines that will help to improve your effectiveness and enhance client satisfaction.
Employee Well-Being and Team Function
Organizations benefit when focus is placed on employee well-being because it contributes to the reduction of absenteeism, improves job performance, and helps to establish a positive workplace culture. Organizations also benefit when job roles are designed for improved autonomy, purpose, and skill, which helps to increase motivation and improves knowledge sharing. Job design also contributes to the structure of teams, which in addition to culture, contributes to employee well-being and satisfaction. However, not all workers and organizations are the same. This is because in recent years technology and the rise of social media have created a shift in worker attitudes and perceptions about the work they are doing. As organizations continue to evolve, these concerns are only expected to grow. This is why Satisfactionist Consulting uses an array of tools and resources to help address organizational concerns by leveraging behavioral science, project management, statistical process control, and industry analysis backed by strong academic foundations so that you can tune up, re-engage, and build a pathway to success.
Leadership Training and Personal Coaching
Which is better, happiness or satisfaction? While happiness provides an immediate feeling of elation and joy, it is short lived and difficult to sustain. Satisfactionist Consulting was started because we believe true, sustainable satisfaction is built upon a strong foundation of organization, prioritization, processes, and routines. From this foundation it becomes easier to focus on your goals and develop a plan for success. However, a plan is not enough. Leaders must also be able to execute their plan and meet deadlines as well as other life obligations. It may seem tough to manage it all but we believe we can help cut through the clutter, prioritize what’s important, and still leave room for enjoying the fruits of your labor.
According to research, happiness and gratitude are positively spread. Work teams that focus on improving trust and positivity also improve revenue, efficiency, and client satisfaction. We believe by helping leaders develop the tools they need to develop good positive habits and routines, as well as focus on improving well-being and team function, progress can be made towards sustainable satisfaction making you and your team true Satisfactionist!
