Happy Employees are a Great Deal!Posted by Insightlink on 07/15/15 It's a Good Thing Happiness is Contagious!People who are more satisfied with their workplaces are more likely to stick around longer and of course they will also be more productive. This pretty much sums up the employee engagement goal for most organizations. On the other side of the fence employees who are feeling down in the dumps won’t be as productive. What does Employee Happiness cost?
Now compare that investment to Gallup who reports that 87% of the workforce is actually disengaged. We are not happy workers and it appears nobody is doing that much about it which is a bit crazy considering what it costs to lose a good employee. Cost of Turnover And the cost of losing an employee is frightening! A report from TalentWise found that when an employee quits and walks out the door they take 70% of their knowledge with them not to mention that the company loses 150% of that person’s annual salary as well. One company that is suffering a happiness epidemic we can all learn from is G Adventures headquartered in Toronto, Canada. In a recent Globe and Mail article author Paul Hunter found that G Adventures sends travelers to more than 100 countries and they are proud to say they did not reach annual revenues over $300 million by hiring grumps. Their secret is summed up in a not so typical business executive named Dave Holmes. Holmes is the mayor at G Adventures and the chief happiness officer. His mission is to keep morale high, foster company culture and keep employees engaged and connected. Also known as the head cheerleader, Holmes is ok with that.
