Happy and productive people equals growth
Key Points:
The four key ingredients of a happier, more motivated and more productive workforce are:
leaders with a vision who value how individuals contribute
line managers who empower rather than control their staff
values that are lived and not just spoken, leading to a sense of trust and integrity
employees who have the chance to voice their views and concerns.
Every organisations success is built on its people. Get the people bit right and you are likely to have motivated, productive staff and a more successful business.

We know that in reality workplaces are made up of far more than four component parts. There are other critical elements like accessing finance, customers, accommodation, skills, innovation, regulation etc.
But people are key. Get it wrong and you may be faced with low morale, poor levels of motivation and higher levels of absence. And you will often be lacking that creative spark – particularly when it comes to interacting with your customers.
