All evidence indicates that customer happiness is linked to employee happiness – customer engagement to employee engagement and both to profitability. But, Gallup tells us that in the US less than 30% of employees are engaged (passionate and purposeful about what they do) in their jobs. (It’s estimated to be less that 25% worldwide.) In the US alone that represents $406 Billion in lost productivity! What a pity.

 

Engaged workplaces are more productive, more positive, more focused, more fun and more successful than ones where the majority of people are disengaged.

What makes the difference? The culture and the leadership.

 

When people feel good at work, when leadership takes a personal interest, when people get a chance to do what they do best, get recognized and rewarded for a job well done they do better work.

 

When the environment is three times more positive than negative, when people have friends at work, know what’s expected of them and know that someone will notice them doing things right more often than they find them doing something wrong, they will do better work. That makes sense, right?

That’s because culture determines “How we do things around here,” and how we do things creates the patterns that get repeated every day. The challenge about culture it that it lies at the “invisible” level of the company, it appears to be intangible, but packs a powerful punch when it comes to determining success.

Your company culture is the soul of your enterprise. It determines belief, behavior and attitudes. In fact, culture is so strong – it’s been said that “Culture eats strategy for lunch.”

 

We’ve discovered that when leadership strives to create and craft a culture that nourishes the best in people and that focuses on the well being of the customers, they thrive (not just survive.) Take a look at what we offer that will help you determine what how your culture and your values operate and what you can do to make the “intangible tangible.”

 

Here are some products to help you Create a Feel-Good-At-Work-Place:
