"The Happiness Effect"

Overview: New evidence suggests that employees' emotions are directly correlated to their performance. Traditionally, Quality has been about discovering weaknesses and portrays employee well-being as a side effect of quality improvement. Over the past decade, however, evidence has shown that the opposite is true -- employee well-being is a driver of performance. In this virtual presentation, the author will explore the effect of positive psychology on organizational performance and the importance of ensuring employee satisfaction.
