Did you know that US businesses lose up to $300 billion yearly as a result of workplace stress?
It is no surprise that happy employees experience 31% higher productivity.
And businesses with happy employees outperform the competition by 20%.
In 2018, a thought kept haunting us- With so many talented and skilled people at work, why aren’t people happy? And why are businesses losing money due to workplace stress?
We asked ourselves , “What can we do to reduce stress at work, and improve productivity of teams?”
With the seeds of this idea, we created EQMatch.
Our society has always put intelligence and skills at the forefront.
It was only in the 1990s that the term “Emotional Intelligence” was officially coined.
It has been now established that a higher EQ allows us to understand ourselves and others better, communicate more effectively, and handle challenging situations. In fact, research2 has shown that our success at work or in life depends on Emotional Intelligence 80% and only 20% of intellect.
EQMatch is a science-driven effort to help people address and cultivate their EQ, thus creating a happier, and more productive workforce.
After all, happiness inspires productivity.
