What Really Promotes Happy, Engaged Employees?

Can happy employees boost your productivity? The data is clear: your employees’ happiness and engagement matters – and even affects the bottom-line.

Why Happy Employees Are 12% More Productive

What really causes employees to be happy and productive at work? It’s not just about bonuses and raises. “At Google, employee satisfaction rose 37% as a result of [employee engagement] initiatives—suggesting that financial incentives aren't enough to make for highly productive employees.”

We All Need Friends at Work

After interviewing millions of employees, The Gallup Organization found that close work friendships boost employee satisfaction by 50%, and people with a best friend at work are seven times more likely to be fully engaged. “In an increasingly global and virtual environment, challenges for employees and managers will be to cultivate these personal relationships.”
