In numerous studies, diversity — both inherent (e.g., race, gender) and acquired (experience, cultural background) — is associated with business success. For example, a 2009 analysis of 506 companies found that firms with more racial or gender diversity had more sales revenue, more customers, and greater profits. A 2016 analysis of more than 20,000 firms in 91 countries found that companies with more female executives were more profitable. In a 2011 study management teams exhibiting a wider range of educational and work backgrounds produced more-innovative products. These are mere correlations, but laboratory experiments have also shown the direct effect of diversity on team performance. In a 2006 study of mock juries, for example, when black people were added to the jury, white jurors processed the case facts more carefully and deliberated more effectively.

The United States is no longer among the world’s 20 happiest countries, according to a new report — with young people hit particularly hard and reporting lower levels of well-being than any other age group.

A toxic workplace culture is 10 times more likely to cause employees to quit than low compensation.

Happiness does not directly correlate with money: The link between income and happiness ends once someone earns $75,000 annually, according to a study by Purdue University.

Just 14% of U.S. adults say they're very happy.

Suicide rates fell in 2019 and 2020. Experts are concerned that the uptick last year may represent a return to normal.

All leaders use indicators to measure progress. For example, if you asked CEOs what indicators they follow most closely, they would probably say revenue growth or share price. With world leaders, it's harder to know. Would they say GDP? Unemployment? The poverty rate? Maybe the Saudi king would say oil prices.

Nearly one-third of employees are considering quitting their jobs and one-quarter resigned over the past six months, according to a FlexJobs survey.
The No. 1 reason for resigning was “toxic company culture,” with low salary, poor management and a lack of a healthy work-life balance following closely behind.
However, if you’re planning to leave, it’s important “not to burn any bridges,” experts say.

Research shows that women are 41% more likely to experience toxic workplace culture than men.

Are you feeling unhappy at work? You’re not alone. Job dissatisfaction is a growing problem that affects millions of people around the world.

The unhappiest jobs are also some of the loneliest, according to an 85-year study from Harvard researchers.
