Happiness seems as elusive and subjective at work as empathy. But there is a link between the two, and we're going to get into that today! My guest is Dr. Tracy Brower, a PhD sociologist studying work-life fulfillment and happiness. Today we discuss what happiness at work means, how happiness is linked to empathy, and the research around what happy workplaces experience in terms of engagement, retention, and performance. Tracy shatters the myths of happiness as a constant state. While we can't "make people happy" we can create the conditions for happiness. She shares the five measurable conditions for happiness and we discuss the Paradox of Happiness, the benefits of post-traumatic growth, the current loneliness epidemic and the role workplace cultures can play, and the two important components of what it means to thrive. Tracy offers ways you can create connections as a leader - and you'll love the conversation near the end about how leaders don't have to take on all the responsibility for this in their culture by themselves! To access the episode transcript, please click on the episode title at www.TheEmpathyEdge.com Key Takeaways:Tracy's Big Five conditions for happiness are: Having a sense of purpose, Connection with other people, Opportunity for learning, growth and challenge, Performing really well, and Gratitude.Sometimes you will have to do work you don't want to do. Your work won't always be fulfilling. But that doesn't mean your career or workplace cannot be nurturing, engaging, and fulfilling despite that work.Thriving always includes an element of striving. There are positive challenges, and positive growth that come out of difficult situations. "It's actually counterproductive to measure happiness by itself, and the more we think about happiness as its own end, the less likely we are to accomplish it, statistically." — Dr. Tracy Brower Episode References: The Empathy Edge episodesLogan Mallory: How a Culture of Gratitude Boosts Engagement and Mental HealthJamie Greenwood: Why Empathy for Others Starts with Compassion for YourselfShasta Nelson: Why Successful Leaders Encourage Work FriendshipsFrom Our Partner:Download the 2024 Ninth Annual State of Workplace Empathy study from Businessolver: www.businessolver.com/edge Discover more valuable content from Businessolver on The Benefits Pulse vodcast: www.businessolver.com/benefits-pulse About Dr. Tracy Brower, VP Workplace Insights, SteelcaseDr. Tracy Brower is a PhD sociologist studying work-life fulfillment and happiness.

Season 05 Episode 09: A prism party and colour cascadeWARNING: This episode presents topics on workplace fatalities and suicide - Listener discretion is advised.Sara announces the publication of a new book of which she is a co-editor, “Healthcare Insights: The voice of the consumer, the practitioner, and the work design strategist.” “The intent,” she explains, “is to empathise and to understand situations from many points of view. It's like holding a crystal to the sky, and seeing different colours refract when you spin it around,” says Sara. Trace concurs, “Storytelling and narratives are prisms to view a different world.” Tracie elaborates on his contribution to a chapter in another book in the Workplace Insights series on Good Work Design, using empathy maps to articulate victim impact statement. “That's golden,” Sara exclaims, “That's from working with me! I love that a past state prosecutor is using empathy maps in storytelling.” Trajce recalls, “We used empathy maps in our safety conference presentation on distributed work emerging from the pandemic”. Alan retorts, “I remember that conference. I think there was some trivialisation of alcohol at that event!”Alan and Trajce reflect on their careers in work health and safety law, and on some critical cases. “The downside of workplace criminal law,” Alan deducts, “is that everyone suffers.” Trajce adds, “This is unintentional crime.” Sara shares a subscriber's, Craig McDonald's, concerns about causational chains of responsibility, especially when governments constrain capital expenditure in transport infrastructure. Conversely, the podcast crew debate the notion of spurious injury claims and the weaponisation of alleged psychosocial harm.Full disclosure: gremlins invaded the studio ghost in the machine, faculty cables during recording caselaw discussion, we know, we know, but the content was too good to omit.

Workhuman, the company revolutionising the way employees celebrate, connect with and appreciate each other in the workplace, has unveiled the latest innovation in its platform - the addition of a generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) Assistant to its cultural [workforce] intelligence tool, Workhuman iQ. Workhuman is launching this tool as many HR and business leaders struggle to access organisational insights, which are often buried in static, incomplete, and cumbersome data analytics systems. Workhuman iQ offers an intuitive generative AI interface that surfaces dynamic and actionable answers and insights powered by an organisation's rich, authentic, and unique Social Recognition programme data, and Workhuman's 25 years of culture and recognition research. Workhuman iQ is the only solution in the industry that provides a comprehensive view of an organisation's people dynamics, performance and skills, state of cultural health, and where and how work is getting done. Workhuman's new AI Assistant within Workhuman iQ leverages the world's first recognition-specific language model, built by Workhuman, and uses data from a customer's own recognition programme to provide real-time insight that can inform decisive actions to maximise people and business results. This innovation allows people managers and business leaders to quickly and easily get accurate and interactive answers to many types of employee, team, department, and organisation-level questions. These include: "Who within the organisation is demonstrating our company values?", "What is the current skills profile of my team?", "What impact is employee recognition having on top-talent or overall retention in my department?" and "Who are the best internal candidates for this role?" The AI Assistant provides highly accurate responses, putting answers at the fingertips of those who need them most without the need for even more technology or data analytics expertise. Transforming the way companies monitor and enhance their culture, Workhuman iQ leverages proprietary algorithms and AI to analyse data within the Workhuman platform, offering leaders and managers clear insights into the state of their culture and talent. Acting as a virtual consultant and a single source of truth, AI Assistant and Workhuman iQ goes beyond reporting, uncovering previously hidden workplace insights and providing unparalleled insights into people dynamics, performance, skills, and more, empowering leaders to make informed and strategic decisions. The manual and labour-intensive process of generating actionable insights is replaced with real-time, on-demand trends, patterns, and precise answers to people and organisational questions. "AI is changing the way work gets done, and with the introduction of generative AI tools within programmes that generate significant data, it opens the door for people without analytics backgrounds to easily access information it would have otherwise taken them days or weeks to uncover," said Kevin Heinzelman, Workhuman Head of Product Management. "Workhuman iQ analyses an organisation's unique recognition data and surfaces personalised, recommended actions based on identified patterns to help managers make informed decisions and foster an encouraging environment - further driving optimal team engagement, retention, and performance. Our solution equips managers with the information they need to better support their team and induces them to take a more proactive role in shaping culture, and our AI Assistant takes those analytics capabilities to the next level." The new AI Assistant comes on the heels of additional innovations in the Workhuman Platform, Admin Hub, and Automated Welcome Awards, which significantly improve and empower the Social Recognition Programme Manager experience. Workhuman iQ empowers HR leaders and people managers to measure recognition programmes, track culture and engagement, measure skills and performance, and actively know how to improve every ...

So not achieving sales figures or manufacturing figures. And the third one is the cost involved in training employees that then move on a couple of months later to a new job.

Wouldn't it be great to get to know the naked truth about some companies' culture? No fluff just whatever it is being said by their employees. Google searches related to work culture have increased significantly. People are interested in learning more about a company's employee experience, psychological safety, benefits, flexibility, equality, among other things. While this is great, it can still be time-consuming to delve deeper into cultural challenges and specific companies or industries. However, a new way of finding this information has emerged - A bunch of tech guys working with artificial intelligence are analyzing everything being said on the internet about corporate's work culture by employees. I got the hint to contact one of the founders of Culturama to discuss the creation of the largest encyclopedia of work culture.
