What Work-Related Factors Affect These Areas?

And What Can You Do About Them?

The Mood of Your Managers

• In a Harvard Business Review article called Leadership That Gets Results, Daniel Goleman cites research which shows that up to 30% of a company's financial results (as measured by key business performance indicators such as revenue growth, return on sales, efficiency and profitability) are determined by the climate of the organization.

• So what is the major factor that drives the climate of an organization? • It's the leader: in Primal Leadership: Realizing the Power of Emotional

Intelligence, Goleman states that roughly 50-70% of how employees perceive their organization's climate is attributable to the actions and behaviors of their leader. A leader creates the environment that determines people's moods at the office and their mood, in turn, affects their productivity and level of engagement.

The Effects of Poor Mood at Work

• Negative moods can affect judgement, perception, and physical and emotional well-being.

• Long-term exposure to negative moods such as stress can lead to illnesses, such as heart disease, diabetes, and ulcers.

• The poor decision-making effects of a negative mood can hinder a person's job performance and lead to making bad decisions that impact the company.
