If Leaders and Staff do not enjoy the effort it will be difficult to sustain. Enterprise Excellence done right will engage the organization, improve communication as what should be communicated is better understood, and in turn increases transparency. Research shows that leadership and staff engagement is an ingredient for success and makes for a happier workplace. That in turn will lead to reduced turnover. For example, it is well known in healthcare that there are significant cyclical staffing shortages in this country. It is not coincidental that long hours, poor work flow, and considerable demands onstaff time leads to higher turnover. Hospitals that have won the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award or are considered leaders in the field tend to have lower levels of turnover. Enterprise Excellence can help bring "joy" back into the work place.
