Growth Fatigue: The Frenemy of Small Business

You're probably used to riding the waves of growth like a pro surfer, but what about those choppy waters that leave you feeling more like a shipwreck than a captain? 

Wave hello to Growth Fatigue!

 

What is Growth Fatigue?

Growth fatigue is like that unwelcome surprise party where everyone got the date wrong. It sneaks up when the never-ending list of projects, new initiatives, and growth strategies pushes everyone to their limits.

Imagine your resources as a pizza. Growth fatigue is that feeling when everyone wants a slice, but there's barely a crumb left!

 

The Impact on Small Businesses

According to a recent study, 71% of employees say they’re overwhelmed by the amount of change at their job*. For small businesses, growth fatigue isn't just an annoying neighbor; it's a full-blown party crasher. Limited resources + smaller teams = burnout, lower productivity, and employees packed and ready to hit the escape button.

 

Why You Can't Ignore Growth Fatigue

Ignoring growth fatigue is like letting your room get messier and hoping Marie Kondo will magically appear. Spoiler: She won’t. If you want your growth track squeaky clean and forward-moving, tackle it before it grows teeth.
