5 Components of The Science of Happiness at Work ™ system

Recent robust research by iOpener UK into staff happiness identified five important components that inform and build greater levels of employee engagement and Happiness at Work.

They matter because they facilitate a shift in mindset and performance, and a host of other personal and organizational benefits that go beyond improved engagement and satisfaction.

That’s why it’s so important that everyone take action to build a high performance teams workplace

• Contribution is the effort an individual or team makes.
• Conviction is your short-term motivation in both good times and bad.
• Culture is the extent to which you feel you fit at work.
• Commitment is your long-term motivation.
• Confidence is your belief in your own abilities at work.

These 5Cs act as a business style ecosystem: when one starts to become affected, the others will become unstable in turn.

And that means staff performance will quickly drop off. But when everyone has high levels of all the 5Cs, then they’ll perform at their best whatever happens.
