When Jason Mitchell escaped the office to reconnect with his tasks, he noticed something: he was losing sight of the relationships behind the tasks.
“Action has meaning only in relationship; without understanding relationship, action on any level will only breed conflict. The understanding of relationship is infinitely more important than the search for any plan of action.” – Jiddu Krishnamurti
This discovery led Jason to build regular check-ins with members of his team, that weren’t simply task-orientated, but were people-orientated.
Jason is VP of Customer Experience at Typefi, and joins Henry to discuss what he experienced and learned through Happy’s Level 7 Senior Leadership Apprenticeship Programme, otherwise known as the “Happy MBA”.
Jason’s three tips for a happy workplace
- Support your team to pursue their ideas for improvement, not yours.
- Embrace asynchronous working.
- Celebrate anything and everything you can.
