Organizational happiness






Interesting title right? Ihad the opportunity to attend a course on talent management a few months ago and the 1st thing the presenter talked about was organizational happiness. Tibet was the one and only nation to gauge Gross National Happiness, what a great thing to measure in a country. The buzz word in HC now is Employee Engagement, previously it was Employee Satisfaction, and now should a company also do the same and gauge their Employee Happiness Level? Would happy employees contribute better to his or her organization? There logic is there but is it a fact? If the employees are happy, they'll be more engaged to the company, hence they'll be more productive and contribute more. SO now, need to stop measure Employee Engagement Index (EEI), and measure Employee Happiness Index (EHI) instead...how about that?
