There are many ways to validate and justify a positive and happy atmosphere in your workplace. The science actually proves that there is a measurable difference in output, efficiency, and accuracy, not to mention that most people likely agree that feeling ‘happy’ is preferred to being stressed, anxious, and distraught while working. Encouraging your team members to ENJOY themselves while working, specifically to enjoy both what they are doing and have gratitude for those they do it with, builds upon number two above. Interdependence is critical to our talent as well as our positive mental state. Your best people are more likely to stay when they see you acting as a role model, able to be autonomous while growing in their skillset, and are happy while doing it.
