Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to review the latest management developments across the globe and pinpoint practical implications from cutting‐edge research and case studies.

Design/methodology/approach

This briefing is prepared by an independent writer who adds their own impartial comments and places the articles in context.

Findings

There is no doubt that life seems to run smoother when you are happy. Some people would also say that “a happy worker is a productive worker”. Interest in the relationship between job satisfaction and life satisfaction has been growing, because research suggests that job satisfaction is an important factor influencing workers' health. And since studies also show that it can predict workplace performance – and things like absenteeism and future quitting – then social scientists in general and organizational researchers in particular should be sitting up and taking notice.

Practical implications

The paper provides strategic insights and practical thinking that have influenced some of the world's leading organizations.

Originality/value

The briefing saves busy executives and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy‐to digest format.
