The 5Cs

Our research has identified five components (5Cs) that inform and build Happiness at Work:

• Contribution is the effort an individual or team makes
• Conviction is short-term motivation
• Culture is a feeling of fit at work
• Commitment is long-term engagement
• Confidence is the belief in ones abilities

The 5Cs form an ecosysytem which works together to drive performance. When one starts to fall, the others will become unstable in turn. But when individuals, teams or organizations have high levels of all the 5Cs, coupled with Trust, Recognition and Pride, then they will perform at their best whatever happens.
