With his trusty Swiss Army Knife, he could disarm bombs, create traps and just about do anything to get him out of any pickle or to help him solve a challenge presented by the next evil criminal mastermind.

Defining Organizational Health. When people try to define their personal health, they often think of their overall well-being where all systems – physical, mental, and social – are positive and in balance. But it’s more than that.

Naturally, it's much easier to share good news with your employees, but it's perhaps even more important to share the bad news. If revenue is down, or if you've lost a large customer, or if a new competitor has entered the market, let your team know. Your employees need to know about the health of your company or organization. And it's only when they have the full picture -- the good news and the bad news -- that they can rally together with you to brainstorm possible solutions.

Employee recognition has often been deemed a "feel-good" initiative, tied closely to rewards. While we understand its importance, we tend to associate recognition with intangible outcomes like engagement and sentiment, rather than direct impacts on retention and high performance. In today’s workplace, the true ROI of recognition lies in its ability to regenerate tangible, business-driven results.
