Is Wellbeing a Profit Center or a Sunk Cost? with Reka Deak

Amid the pandemic, the concept of a human-centric workplace soared in Google searches, with HR institutions posting 2-3 articles weekly on the topic. Studies underscore its importance: PwC notes 83% of executives see it vital for innovation; University of Warwick research shows 12% productivity gains from happy employees; Gallup finds 21% higher profitability in companies with engaged staff. These findings emphasize the significance of prioritizing employee well-being and engagement for organizational success.

 

Despite these numbers many are still unsure that investing on wellbeing is worth.
