Abstract: This article explores the ongoing debate between whether pursuing status or finding meaning leads to greater well-being and job satisfaction in the long run. It reviews the latest research on the "status theory of happiness" versus the "meaning theory of happiness," which consistently shows that meaningful work, rather than status-seeking, is the key driver of employee happiness, engagement, and productivity. The article then provides practical recommendations for organizational leaders on how to cultivate more meaningful work, such as connecting jobs to personal values, fostering a sense of purpose, supporting growth and development, recognizing meaningful contributions, and building community. It highlights case studies of companies like Patagonia and Enterprise that have successfully implemented these principles to boost employee well-being and sustainable business success. The article concludes that prioritizing meaningful work should be a top strategic priority for leaders seeking to maximize both employee happiness and organizational performance.
