Happiness Is The Ultimate Economic Indicator

Happiness Is The Ultimate Economic Indicator | Success Leadership | Scoop.it
From www.fastcoexist.com - November 19, 2012 4:04 AM
One factor that is increasingly being cited as an important economic indicator is happiness. After all, what good is increased production and consumption if the result isn’t increased human satisfaction? Until fairly recently, the subject of happiness was mostly avoided by economists for lack of good ways to measure it; however, in recent years, “happiness economists” have found ways to combine subjective surveys with objective data (on lifespan, income, and education) to yield data with consistent patterns, making a national happiness index a practical reality.

Wow! What an interesting post. I learned long ago as a probation officer in Texas, I could send someone to prison on the same set of facts depending on the language I used. This is one of the best articles I've ever read on the topic.

From vimeo.com - April 13, 2012 7:27 AM
Stories are powerful. We put together this little demonstration to inspire our people make more emotional connections.

I share it with you today for 2 reasons:

It looks like it would be a very simple video technique you could use for sharing your own business stories. If you need to demonstrate the power of storytelling in your work, share this video!

 

Hope this video gets your week off to a roaring start.
