世界上有三十億人在工作。

And about 40 percent百分 of them would say
they're happy快樂 at work.
6
17816
2889
當中大約四成會說
他們工作很快樂。
00:20
That means手段 about 1.8 billion十億,
or almost幾乎 two billion十億 people,
7
20729
3830
那就表示約有十八億人,
或近二十億人,
00:24
are not happy快樂 at work.
8
24583
1374
工作時並不快樂。
00:25
What does that do,
9
25981
1203
這會有什麼影響?
00:27
both to those people
and the organizations組織 that they work in?
10
27208
3225
對那些人以及他們服務的
組織會有什麼影響?
00:30
Well, let's talk about money.
11
30457
1428
咱們來談談錢。
00:31
Organizations組織 that have
a lot of happy快樂 employees僱員
12
31909
2836
有很多快樂員工的組織
00:34
have three times the revenue收入 growth發展,
13
34769
1730
和沒有很多快樂員工的組織
相較,年度利潤成長率是三倍。
00:36
compared相比 to organizations組織
where that's not true真正.
14
36523
2269
00:38
They outperform跑贏大市 the stock股票 market市場
by a factor因子 of three.
15
38816
2714
股價表現更是高三倍。
00:41
And if you look at employee僱員 turnover周轉,
16
41554
1881
就員工流動率來看,
00:43
it's half that of organizations組織
that have a lot of unhappy不快樂 employees僱員.
17
43459
4524
和擁有許多不快樂員工的
組織相較,只有一半。
00:48
The miracle奇蹟 thing is,
18
48007
1176
神奇的是,並不需要
多花錢就能讓員工快樂。
00:49
you don't have to spend
more money to make this happen發生.
19
49207
2579
00:51
It's not about ping-pong乒乓 tables
and massages按摩 and pet寵物 walking步行.
20
51810
3006
重點不是乒乓球桌、
按摩或遛寵物。
00:54
It's not about the perks津貼.
21
54840
1238
重點不是額外補貼,而是他們
如何被他們的領導人對待,
00:56
It's all about how
they're treated治療 by their leaders領導者
22
56102
2452
及如何被他們的同事對待。
00:58
and by the people that they work with.
23
58578
1856
01:00
So I'd like to share分享 a few少數 ideas思路
that create創建 happy快樂 employees僱員.
24
60458
3992
我想要分享一些想法,
協助創造快樂的員工。
01:04
Idea理念 number one:
25
64474
1620
想法一:
01:06
in organizations組織
where employees僱員 are happy快樂,
26
66118
2643
在員工很快樂的組織中,
01:08
what you find is two things are present當下:
27
68785
2083
你會發現兩樣東西:
01:10
trust相信 and respect尊重.
28
70892
1183
信任和尊重。
01:12
Leaders領導者 often經常 say,
29
72432
1191
領導人通常會說:
「我們信任我們的員工。
01:13
"We trust相信 our employees僱員.
30
73647
1372
01:15
We empower授權 our employees僱員."
31
75043
1492
我們賦權給員工。」
01:16
And then when an employee僱員
needs需求 a laptop筆記本電腦 --
32
76559
2029
接著,當員工需要筆電時——
01:18
and this is a true真正 example --
33
78612
1422
這是個真實例子——
01:20
15 people have to approve批准 that laptop筆記本電腦.
34
80058
2726
十五個人得要核准那台筆電。
01:22
So for the employee僱員,
all the words are right,
35
82808
2294
所以,對員工來說,
所有的文字規定都沒問題,
01:25
but 15 levels水平 of approval贊同
for a $1,500 laptop筆記本電腦?
36
85126
3837
但一千五百美元的筆電
卻要經過十五關審核?
01:28
You've actually其實 spent花費 more money
than the laptop筆記本電腦, on the approval贊同.
37
88987
3231
你花在審核的錢
比買筆電的錢還多。
01:32
And the employee僱員 feels感覺
maybe they're really not trusted信任.
38
92242
3721
員工覺得也許他們並沒有被信任。
01:35
So what can an organization組織 do
to have a high level水平 of trust相信?
39
95987
4411
所以,組織要如何做,
才能有高度的信任?
01:40
The first organization組織
that comes to mind心神 is Four Seasons四季.
40
100422
2926
首先想到的組織是四季酒店。
01:43
They have magnificent華麗的 properties性能
all around the world世界.
41
103372
2674
他們在全世界都有雄厚的資產。
01:46
And their employees僱員 are told,
42
106070
1525
他們的員工被告知:
01:47
"Do whatever隨你 you think is right
when servicing服務 the customer顧客."
43
107619
3078
「在服務客人時,
做任何你認為正確的事。」
01:50
To hand that trust相信 to your employees僱員
to do whatever隨你 they think is right
44
110721
4357
把信任交給你的員工,
讓他們做他們認為正確的事,
01:55
makes品牌 the employees僱員 feel great.
45
115102
1832
會讓員工感覺很棒。
01:56
And this is why they're known已知
for delivering交付 some of the best最好 service服務
46
116958
3259
這就是為什麼四季的員工
以優質服務聞名世界。
02:00
in the world世界.
47
120241
1151
02:01
Idea理念 number two: fairness公平.
48
121416
2540
想法二:公平。
02:03
The thing that erodes溶蝕 trust相信
in an organization組織
49
123980
3205
在一個組織中,
有件事會侵蝕信任,
02:07
faster更快 than anything else其他
50
127209
1514
且速度無與倫比,
02:08
is when employees僱員 feel
that they're being存在 treated治療 unfairly不公平.
51
128747
3112
那就是員工認為
他們沒有被公平對待。
02:11
Employees僱員 want to be treated治療 the same相同,
52
131883
1854
員工希望被同等對待,
02:13
regardless而不管 of their rank
or their tenure保有 or their age年齡
53
133761
2838
不論他們的階級、
他們的任期、他們的年齡、
02:16
or their experience經驗 or their job工作 category類別,
54
136623
2290
他們的經驗、他們的工作類別
02:18
compared相比 to anyone任何人 else其他.
55
138937
1451
和別人比起來如何。
02:20
When I think about great organizations組織
who get fairness公平 right,
56
140412
3065
若要談有公平權利的優良組織,
02:23
the first organization組織
that comes to mind心神 is Salesforce銷售力量.
57
143501
2625
最先想到的是 Salesforce。
02:26
They found發現 that men男人 and women婦女
working加工 in the same相同 job工作
58
146150
2761
他們發現,男性和女性
若做同樣的工作,精練度相同,
02:28
with the same相同 level水平 of proficiency精通
59
148935
1730
02:30
were making製造 different不同 amounts of money.
60
150689
1865
所得卻會不一樣。
02:32
So immediately立即, they
calculated計算 the difference區別,
61
152578
2357
所以,他們馬上去計算那差異,
02:34
and they invested投資 three million百萬 dollars美元
to try and balance平衡 things out.
62
154959
3547
他們投資了三百萬美元,
試著取得平衡。
02:39
Idea理念 number three is listening.
63
159065
2181
想法三:傾聽。
02:41
So, to be a listener傾聽者 who connects所連接
with all types類型 of people,
64
161617
3691
要成為傾聽者,和各種人連結,
02:45
we have to unlearn忘記 a few少數 things.
65
165332
2087
我們得要忘掉幾件學過的事。
02:47
We've我們已經 all been taught about
active活性 listening and eye contact聯繫 --
66
167443
3968
我們都被教導要積極傾聽
以及眼神接觸——
02:51
an intense激烈 stare
67
171435
1730
熱切的盯著,
02:53
and a compassionate富於同情心的 look.
68
173189
1722
很有熱忱的表情。那不是傾聽。
02:54
That's not listening.
69
174935
1179
重覆一個人說的話——
那不是傾聽。
02:56
Repeating重複 what the person says --
that's not listening.
70
176138
3062
02:59
Being存在 humble謙卑
71
179224
1209
要謙遜,不斷獵尋、尋找
可能的最佳點子——
03:00
and always hunting狩獵 and searching搜索
for the best最好 idea理念 possible可能 --
72
180457
3298
03:03
that's what listening is.
73
183779
1436
那才是傾聽。
03:05
And employees僱員 can feel
whether是否 you're doing that or not.
74
185239
2636
員工能夠感覺到你有沒有這樣做。
03:07
They want to know, when they talk to you
and share分享 an idea理念,
75
187899
3187
當他們和你交談及分享
想法時,他們想要知道,
03:11
did you consider考慮 it
when you made製作 a decision決定?
76
191110
2274
在你決策時有考慮
他們所提的事嗎?
03:13
The one thing that everybody每個人 appreciates讚賞
and wants when they're speaking請講
77
193408
4265
當人們在說話時,
他們都想要也很感謝一件事,
03:17
is to know that what they say
matters事項 so much
78
197697
3714
就是知道他們所說的話非常重要,
03:21
you might威力 actually其實 change更改 your mind心神.
79
201435
2079
很可能會讓你改變主意。
03:23
Otherwise除此以外, what's the point
of the conversation會話?
80
203538
2512
不然,對談有什麼意義?
03:27
We all know the things we need to change更改,
81
207533
2389
我們都知道我們需要改變的事,
03:29
the things that we need to do differently不同.
82
209946
2033
我們需要用不同方式做的事。
03:32
The way you behave表現,
the way you treat對待 others其他,
83
212003
2626
你的行為、你對待他人的方式、
03:34
the way you respond響應, the way you support支持,
84
214653
3282
你回應的方式、你支持的方式,
03:37
defines定義 the work experience經驗
for everyone大家 around you.
85
217959
2746
會定義你身邊的人
有怎樣的工作體驗。
03:40
Changing更改 to be a better person --
86
220729
2040
改變成為更好的人——
03:42
the world世界 is littered散落 with those failures故障.
87
222793
2023
世界被那些亂搞的傢伙
弄得亂七八糟。
03:44
But changing改變 because
there's something you believe in,
88
224840
2906
但,為了你的信念而做改變,
03:47
some purpose目的 that you have,
89
227770
1983
為了你的目的而做改變,
03:49
where you're willing願意 to risk風險
almost幾乎 everything
90
229777
2561
你幾乎願意賭上一切,
03:52
because it's so important重要 to you --
91
232362
1899
因為對你而言太重要了——
那就是改變的理由。
03:54
that's the reason原因 to change更改.
92
234285
1674
03:55
If it's not, you should probably大概
find a different不同 place地點 to work.
93
235983
2398
如果不是,你可能得要
換個地方工作了。
