While a business's goal is to rake in profit, there are many other things that they need to think about; one of them is their employees.
The productivity, determination, and motivation of a happy employee are much higher than those who are not. This is because happy employees are not preoccupied with the stress of working and are able to focus on the task at hand, all the while being more willing to take on more work and new challenges.
The happier they are the better leaders they will become. They'll be able to get back up after encountering a set back instead of choosing to throw in the towel. This makes them more resilient and more willing to take risks.
It's common knowledge - happiness enhances creativity. It inspires individuals who are able to come up with new ways to handle a situation or new ideas that will not be possible if they're bogged down with the stress of the day-to-day tasks.
They're also more willing to help. It promotes an environment for better team players. Everyone will be looking out for everyone, lending a hand when it's needed and tasks get completed efficiently.
It's not necessarily more work that achieves more profit; it's efficient, meaningful, and well executed work. This is exactly what employers get when their employees are happy – an increase in their company's profit.
Every positive thing that comes from an employee being happy directly impacts a company. As employers, you have the power to make the necessary change that'll benefit both you and your company.
