Happiness

Happiness is new corporate trash positioned like a carrot to employees by human resources. Giving food coupons or movie tickets is not happiness. Neither are weekly alcohol galas post-work.

Happiness is mental well-being. That can happen with good company culture. An environment with zero toxicity. A place where employees could question senior authority. That will happen if the culture supports radical openness, transparency, and accountability.

People working with you should be in the organizational cause, be motivated to wake up, work and be part of a rocket ship.

The funding winter has opened floodgates full of thinking for employers and employees. People asked to leave, and companies are getting shut down. What happens to happiness now? All the corporate BS sold in PR, media, and social media is getting a reality check.
