Most HR leadership philosophies are grounded in two completely faulty assumptions — “change is hard” and “engagement drives results.” Those beliefs have inspired expensive attempts to keep change from being disruptive to employees. What these engagement programs actually do is create and reinforce feelings of victim-hood and leave employees unprepared to adapt to real changes that are necessary for the health and profitability of their enterprises.

Our culture has long viewed happiness in the workplace as a sign of lower productivity. Surely those infusing joy and laughter within the confines of their office are slacking off and costing the company time and most certainly money.
