The Happy Leader
The stresses and strains of work life often affect the demeanor of a leader. The most visible signs of workplace pressures manifest themselves in a leader’s body language. Leader’s frequently walk around with pained expressions or a scowl, yet it is not their intention to send negative signals to their team members. A recent study highlighted the productive benefits, and the health benefits, of being happy – or just in smiling! Leader’s who are perceived as happy help boost morale, increase production, and even lessen the amount of sick days taken by colleagues. Want an easy fix to workplace malaise? Smile. And be intentional about being happy and influencing others to be the same.
