Are people in your organization energized and happy or anxious and stressed? Does it matter? New findings from the正在进行的工作场所活力研究offer important insights into people and what drives performance. Here are three key findings, and a link to download the full report. (Note:The 2020 edition of this study is here)
Six Seconds, a global leader in emotional intelligence, has been surveying workplace vitality for over 10 years and our latest results are now available. The Vitality 2017 report includes responses from 1675 people in 95 countries and reveals critical findings about the level of trust and other key performance drivers, as well as the value of emotions in determining workplace climate.
1. Trust Drives保留,生产力等等……但是很低
Vitality 2017 delivers the sobering message that trust is low across many types of organizations in different regions, but also shows that rebuilding trust can have a powerful positive impact on Key Performance Indicators such as retention, productivity, customer focus, and future success.
Although trust has the lowest score of all 5 drivers (trust, motivation, change, execution, and teamwork), it impacts 62% of overall performance, clearly showing that the focus, organizationally, should be on building trust.
Top Issues at Work, 2017
1.人民领导
Poor leadership/management creating lack of communication, little change, and low trust.
2.丰富的资源
People don’t have the time, or enough employees on the team, to do the work.
3. Compelling Vision
短期重点=缺乏计划。愿景 /方向 /目标尚不清楚。
2. Workplace Issues are Personal.The barriers to employee engagement and high performance are primarily related to emotions and relationships.
With engagement at just over 30 percent, the report discloses the biggest barriers people are facing in the workplace. It also shows that emotional and relational issues are almost 2.5 times more likely to be top concerns than technical and financial ones.
调查受访者表示,组织中有超过70%的关键问题在情感/关系方面(而不是财务/技术)。最常见的问题是管理人员 /领导者缺乏足够的沟通能力。
3. Mood Matters.The emotional climate is a massive predictor of performance.
Companies with a “negative emotional valence” (aka “bad mood”), are16x as likely to have poor retention
And what happens when the mood is positive? Get the full report, it’s free.只需填写以下表格即可要求它。
Frustration may be a fact of organizational life today, but people in companies that embrace EQ express many more positive feelings than people who work where the importance of EQ is not recognized. Trust skyrockets when the mood is positive, while employees are much more likely to leave when the prevailing mood is negative.
Bottom Line:In organizations, actionable data drives positive change
