5. Creating THE working environment<br />

“Happiness is not a goal; it is a by-product”<br />

Eleanor Roosevelt<br />

Known as the “First Lady of the World” for her dedication to human and<br />

worker’s rights, Eleanor Roosevelt was known for getting her opinions out<br />

there no matter what the world told her she ‘should’ be doing. As a strong<br />

campaigner against racism and an advocate for workers’ rights, she wasn’t even<br />

afraid of denouncing her own husband’s policies in public! This woman on a<br />

mission believed in diversity, simplicity and the power of the heart. In order to<br />

create an environment where employees thrive with real passion for their jobs<br />

leaders must weave these concepts into every part of the work environment.<br />

Food<br />

Providing and promoting healthy<br />

food not only has benefits for<br />

your employees but also for you. A<br />

nutritious diet improves stamina and<br />

concentration, gets the creative juices<br />

flowing and leads to more proactive,<br />

productive employees with increased<br />

problem-solving capabilities. It should<br />

also mean less people phoning in sick<br />

and an all round happier workforce!<br />

Bonus:<br />

CHOCOLATE can be a great mood<br />

enhancer due to its ability to stimulate<br />

the production of serotonin, your body’s<br />

chemical mood enhancer! Aim for high<br />

quality organic dark chocolate though,<br />

with over 70% cocoa content.<br />
