How Rewards At Work Backfire And Make People LESS Happy

If you give employees a reward, surely that will make them happier, more motivated and more productive, right? Wrong!

Research (and experience) shows that rewards often backfire and make people less happy. In this webinar we’re going to look at why that is and how to get rewards right, so they actually make employees happier and more motivated.


Why Emotions Matter For Driving Motivation And Performance At Work

Some people seem to think that feelings don’t belong in the workplace and that we should leave our emotions at home and go to work as rational, thinking beings.

That’s nonsense. Research has shown again and again that our emotions are key to who we are and are primary drivers of our ability to function, make decisions and relate to others.

In this webinar we’ll look at the crucial role of emotions in the workplace and how they drive success and happiness.


What A Chief Happiness Officer Does – And Why Every Company Needs One

Chief Happiness Officers are all the rage and more and more companies are getting one. But why is that? And what is a CHO’s job?

What REALLY motivates employees

Every manager wants their employees to be motivated but the traditional tools like promises of rewards or threats of punishment just don’t work very well. Worst of all is of course bringing in a motivational speaker.

In this webinar we will cover exactly how to sustainably motivate employees. 


How Compensation Affects Employee Happiness (It’s Complicated!)

“Show me the money!” goes the famous quote from Jerry Maguire. And while there is much, much more to creating a happy workplace than salaries, bonuses, perks and other compensation types, we can’t afford to ignore the money completely – because getting it wrong can have devastating effects.

In this webinar we will cover exactly how compensation affects employee happiness. 


How To Create And Maintain Positive Workplace Relationships

Companies tend to massively undervalue the importance of good workplace relationships. That’s a mistake because the research CLEARLY shows that organizations that foster good relationships get better results, because people like each other, trust each other, work better together and communicate better.

In this webinar we will cover exactly why creating good relationships is essential at work.


How always being busy KILLS productivity – and 5 ways to avoid it

It feels like everybody is always busy at work these days.

10 Tips To Create EFFECTIVE Happiness Workplace Initiatives

How to get bosses to give positive feedback
