44  Happiness Is A Strategic Advantage – not just a “nice to have”

Studies prove that happy people are more productive, build stronger relationships, achieve better results, and make more money. For businesses, that means higher performance, stronger teams, and more profit.

And the good news? Happiness isn’t subjective, there are proven, science-backed ways to increase it.

One of them is to use your signature strengths. These are the qualities and skills that come naturally to you and make you feel energised, engaged, motivated, and fulfilled when you use them.

Gallup research shows that:

➡️   When employees understand and focus on their signature strengths, they increase their productivity by 7.8%.
➡️   Teams that use their strengths daily are 12.5% more productive.

🎁  Try this today:

Take a moment to reflect on what energises and excites you at work. Identify one task or strength that aligns with this energy, and see how you can focus more on it today. Notice the difference in your productivity, mood, and overall satisfaction as you lean into your natural strengths.

Happiness is no longer just a “nice to have”, it’s a strategic advantage. 

That’s why my Executive Coaching doesn’t leave success to chance. By proactively integrating signature strengths training, I help leaders and teams create immediate impact – boosting confidence, performance, and resilience.
