Did you have a good vacation at the end of 2019? Or did you just keep on working? Studies show that taking a break will improve your overall health - read more about this here.
In 2013, Harvard Business Review partnered up with the founder and CEO of The Energy Project, Tony Schwartz, to conduct research where more than 12,000 consultants and managers participated. This research showed that the employees, regardless of the industry or company, are more satisfied and more productive when the company fulfils their “4 basic needs”:
- Physical needs: thorough opportunities to renew and regularly recharge their energy levels
- Emotional needs: to feel valued and appreciated for their contributions
- Psychological needs: to be able to focus on their most important tasks and define when and where they want to work
- Spiritual needs: doing more of what they enjoy the most and feeling connected to a deeper purpose
