That\u2019s why there has been so much emphasis on keeping employees happy. When your employees are feeling not only satisfied, but also valued, they will be more likely to keep your clients satisfied too. Your business will be more likely to thrive and grow. Of course, this works in the opposite direction as well. When your staff is frustrated and angry, their actions can drive away your customers and clients. If you are looking to sell your business for maximum revenues, it is a good idea to also maximize employee satisfaction levels.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Research from <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ox.ac.uk\/news\/2019-10-24-happy-workers-are-13-more-productive\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Oxford University<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> found a link between happiness and productivity. According to their study, workers are 13% more productive when they are happy. It goes without saying that employees will be more likely to feel satisfied when they feel that their salary and benefits are fair for the work they do. If they are resentful about the compensation they are receiving for their work, this will ultimately impact their performance.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you think about some of the most successful companies, you realize that many of them invest substantially in supporting their employees to cultivate higher levels of employee satisfaction. For example, Google is well-known for offering a wide range of perks ranging from parental leave and paid time off to free lunches and fitness facilities.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When it is feasible for employees to work remotely, many employers are finding that it makes sense to offer them this possibility. Not only will it help staff members to manage childcare, but also it can end lengthy and stressful commutes to work that could result in stress and anxiety.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Research in the journal <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/traversmark\/2020\/11\/30\/new-research-identifies-six-ways-to-increase-happiness-in-the-workplace\/?sh=127da1bf2482\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Frontiers in Psychology<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> showed helpful interventions that are proven to increase employee happiness levels. These included training in resiliency, mindfulness, and cognitive-behavioral techniques.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you exhibit good leadership and act as a positive role model, your employees will likely follow suit. Employees should be acknowledged and rewarded for a job well done. In some cases, this may be a financial bonus, but in other cases it could simply be patting that employee on the back. Cultivating a positive company culture will prove to boost overall morale. This will increase success for your entire company.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/deal-studio.com\/the-importance-of-employee-happiness\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Copyright: Business Brokerage Press, Inc.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bigstockphoto.com\/image-360916480\/stock-photo-portrait-of-smiling-happy-african-american-black-woman-relaxing-using-technology-of-laptop-computer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Achi_Studio\/BigStock.com<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/deal-studio.com\/the-importance-of-employee-happiness\/\">The Importance of Employee Happiness<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/deal-studio.com\/\">Deal Studio &#8211; Automate, accelerate and elevate your deal making<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Everyone knows that good employees are important for a thriving business.
