Lead, retain, inspire - with positive leadership

Positive Leadership is a leadership model that applies the principles of positive psychology to everyday management. It is based on the five PERMA dimensions - positive emotions, commitment, relationships, purpose and goal achievement - and describes specific behaviors that managers can use to specifically promote the well-being and performance of their employees.

Why?

  • Staff turnover costs an average of 150% of the annual salary per departing specialist - plus recruiting, onboarding and knowledge loss costs. 1
  • Skills shortage & employer brand risk increase pressure on HR to deliver sustainable retention solutions.
