We can conjecture that employees who enjoy relational health at home, in their intimate relationships, and among their peers are more productive, more effective team members and make better leaders. They are happier, healthier, more confident, positive, and motivated.  

Studies show that individuals in happy, stable, and successful relationships have greater skills in areas such as communication, flexibility, listening, problem solving, collaboration, personality compatibility, and conflict resolution. The connection between these skills and the workplace are obvious ­and are worth cultivating.

According to a 2006 study, when dual-income couples are happy in marriage, they are more loyal to their employers, thus turnover is lowered. The cost-saving benefits of not having to train new employees leads to greater profitability.  

We found several studies that break down the returns on investment (ROI) in employee wellness programs. While most companies report initial losses because of having to find the "right fit" for their employees, long-term results show savings of $1.40 - $4.90 per every dollar spent, and an ROI of up to $6.85 for every dollar invested in employee relationship wellness programs.  

When your company invests in such relationship wellness programs, like those that Connection Coaching, LLC offers, you will benefit by greater loyalty of your employees, reduced turnover, more effective teamwork, increased sales, productivity, and positive morale of the workforce. Who wouldn't want that? Happy Couples = Effective Employees = Profitable Businesses - a winning formula!
