Want to DOUBLE the motivation of your workforce?
…then take Sustainability seriously. Seriously.
Just stumbled over this study from NetImpact that found that:
Slightly more than half of professionals (55%) say they are currently in a job where they can make a social or environmental impact on the world. These respondents are more satisfied with their job by a 2:1 ratio (49% report high satisfaction levels, compared to just 24% of those who do not have impact opportunities at work).
Obviously there’s two parts to this equation. First you have to be doing the right thing in environmental and social terms. And secondly, you have to engage employees in that process so they feel part of it.
Handily, that’s two of the three main Terra Infirma workstreams at present – developing Sustainability Strategy and embedding a Sustainability Culture. If we’re given half a chance, we do both simultaneously!
