The Positive Payoff

Tom Rath believes he knows what makes people happyand engagedat work, and he has the numbers to prove it. An employee of The Gallup Organization for the past 13 years, his work draws on millions of data points to demonstrate the power of positive interactions, the value of relationships at work, and what happens when you build on strengths instead of trying to fix weaknesses.

His first book, co-authored with Donald Clifton, How Full is Your Bucket? was number 1 on the New York Times and BusinessWeek bestseller lists. Raths latest book, StrengthFinder 2.0, also is a bestseller. Rath discusses with T+D some of his research into employee productivity and engagement.

In terms of time invested in employees, the very worst condition we see in the workplace is not when managers are focusing on their employees weaknesses all the time and telling them what theyre doing wrong, he says. Thats actually better than having an apathetic manager who ignores them.
