Should You Be Happy At Work?

Why should you be happy at work? Organizations around the world are heavily investing in employee engagement, health and wellness, and well-being programs. However, I have yet to meet an organization that can justify the ROI of these investments. There are of course some macro studies which show that engagement and happiness yield better productivity, lower, turnover, etc. but these aren’t things that companies track individually. Companies are spending millions of dollars on health insurance plans, redesigning their workspaces, new technologies, and the like, but for what? Just to make employees happy? Can your organization say you are 20% more productive as a result of a new workspace? Is turnover going down because of the catered meals that are offered?
