It is a no-brainer that better morale leads to increased productivity. General morale at work can make or break a company’s success. Effective leaders keep a close eye on company morale. Staff who feel fulfilled and appreciated are far more likely to go the extra mile. They will be more loyal and your staff turnover will decrease. Creative approaches can be employed to build the morale if it is low. The best approach would be to embrace positive changes before the depressing atmosphere really takes hold.
If you recognize some of this behavior in your workplace you can be sure that morale is not as good as it could be. Eye rolls, consistent lateness, high staff turnover, lower performance and less staff collaboration. A Gallup survey recently found that only about 13% of workers are engaged in their job. Research also shows that sadly by far a large majority of people do not enjoy their work.
