The secrets of business efficiency.
.
Unfortunately, most workers (especially in the U.S.) experience prohibitive stress. How can managers create a work environment in which employees enjoy working and therefore perform their duties more efficiently? There is only one answer: take an example from Iceland.
Iceland is one of the happiest countries on Earth . Icelanders feel twice as happy as Americans. Almost three quarters of Icelanders consider themselves "happy", while in North America there are only 30% such people. And this is very impressive when you consider that Iceland has the worst weather conditions on the planet, there is no sunshine for half the year, frequent volcanic eruptions shake the country, and the global financial crisis is much worse than in the United States.
Here are some tips to help you run your business.
In American companies, success is often perceived as a personal achievement, often at the expense of others. In Iceland, by contrast, conditions are harsher, so you can't survive without the help of others. In Iceland, of course you can succeed, but only if you are part of something communal, not a small selfish individual. The ultimate goal of the community rather than the individual makes people feel happier.
