Humankind has long struggled to find the secret to living a happy life, but what about workplace happiness? Have you ever wondered how your employees feel at work ? Perhaps you’ve tried to create a fun and satisfying environment, with activities like foosball and ping pong or by offering free lunches and snacks. But if you haven’t found success, it may be because those perks focus more on downtime, rather than creating a productive work environment.

The great temptation of leadership is giving answers instead of guidance. Experience makes answer-giving easy. But there’s an ego factor as well. It feels great to KNOW when others don’t.

While there's little question that organizations need to be more responsive change, the real question today's leaders need to address is are they at ease with taking risks, and more importantly, are the risks they're taking the right ones? This question lies at the heart of my conversation with my guest Doug Sundheim in this latest episode of my leadership podcast, “Leadership Biz Cafe”.

When you look at high performing teams, a common factor is a high-working level of trust between the team members and with the leader.

Nearly 70 percent of U.S. employees are disengaged at work, and business leaders want to know why.

Determining the ideal feedback cadence requires an understanding of how your company plans, acts on, and evaluates other mission-critical aspects of the organizatio

Active Learning Works. Active learning works because real learning is not passive. Listening to experts or watching others can provide an initial sense of how it’s done, but that’s not how you learn to perform on the job. If behavior change or performance improvement is the objective, then learners must get involved and actively learn, practice, fail, succeed and receive feedback.

In research, psychology, and any other field in which someone is intended to be an impartial observer, there is a phenomenon known as the Observer Expectancy Effect, or Observer Bias. This bias happens when an observer expresses their thoughts and expectations about a situation through tone, word choice, and body language in a way that influences how the people they are observing behave.
