While organisations continue to search for the silver bullet to raise employee performance it would seem that there is compelling evidence on both sides of the concept of happiness at work. From culture and values, to innovation and goals - all approaches have been pursued, and at times exhausted. The latest research, however, is telling us that happy performers out perform their peers, save company time and money, and contribute in a more meaningful way to building the right leadership culture.
"The best moments in our lives are not the passive, receptive, relaxing times... the best moments usually occur if a person's body or mind is stretched to its limits in a voluntary effort to accomplish something difficult and worthwhile." ~ Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi (1990, p. 3)
