( Research Finding ) What makes, a Good Day at office / workplace ?
The most common event that triggered most people's best days on the job was - MAKING PROGRESS in their work.
The event that triggered their worst days was experiencing a setback. This is the 'progress principle' made visible !
If a person is motivated and happy at the end of the workday, it's a good bet that he or she made some progress , on some aspect !
If the person drags out of the office disengaged and joyless, a setback is most likely to blame.
In addition, triggers called ' inhibitors' and toxins , were found to be rare - on great days of work.
Sample Size :
According to almost 12,000 diary entries by over 200 people on project teams . All these professionals were asked to keep a daily diary and record their day's experience and events ( and how they reacted to those events ) for 60 days .
Research Conducted by :
Teresa Amabile and Steven J. Kramer on HBR . org
