Happiness at Work

The research is clear – employees who are happy at work are more productive, are absent less and stay in their jobs longer. The bottom line is that happy employees improve the bottom line. But what makes for happiness? And what makes for happiness in the workplace? This interactive session:

• Explores the latest research on happiness.
• Outlines the key ingredients for creating happier, more productive workplaces.
• Provides resources on how to create happier conditions at work.

Pamela Rich is the Director and Founder of Rich Solutions, an organization development firm that promotes strategic thinking, equitable systems and sustainable change as well as happy, engaged employees. She is a Happiness at Work facilitator. Pam holds a BA from Brown University and an MA in Organization Development from Sonoma State University.

No Flywheel Notes this Week

This week’s Flywheel comes to you a day late and some thousand words short of content. For good reason. Our on-time-leader among the scribes, Tom Waller, suffered a heart attack last Saturday morning. Right now he’s fine, at home and recuperating as you read this.

Tom was eager to soldier through it, get out of the hospital, go home and resume life as usual—including hammering out the Flywheel notes by midday Tuesday. Wisely, he decided that he had plenty to manage adjusting to the changes.  Best wishes for a speedy recovery, Tom.
