Unlocking Workplace Well-Being
How can an organization ensure their employees are more engaged? Gallup has done the research and shares that the key is in the manager.
“…More highly engaged managers have more engaged teams. This is crucial because highly engaged teams produce higher quality and quantity of output, have more positive daily emotions, fewer negative daily experiences, and have much higher rates of thriving in their overall lives.” Source: Gallup
