Hmm, How Do We Keep Employees Happy?  

The answer can be a lot simpler than we think.  That's what I learned in this week's episode of Beyond the Legal Lens when I spoke with someone who truly loves her job and the mission of her company. 

Stephanie Singer is a Communications Specialist at Mercy Medical Angels (a non-profit that helps save lives with medical transportation for those in need).  We discuss her trajectory and the reasons why her work environment is such a positive place for her.  If organizations took more of these messages below to heart, I think we'd have much happier people out there (and I'd be out of a job :).  

Love Everyone For Who They Are (my favorite answer)Allow Room For Creativity Showcase and Appreciate Every Step of the WayIf One Task Doesn't Work, Try Another or Help Improve by Offering Continuing Education Ask About Passions Don't Be Afraid To Celebrate  Don’t Feel Like You’re Stuck in The Office (volunteer together, or have staff outings like going to a baseball game).

In short, it comes down to treating the employees as individuals with dignity.  Sounds pretty easy, right? Let's Do It.
