‘Got up on the wrong side of the bed ? Your work will show it

A new study of telephone customer service representatives shows just how important it is for employees to start the workday in a good mood.

Researchers found that employees’ moods when they clocked in tended to affect how they felt the rest of the day. Early mood was linked to their perceptions of customers and to how they reacted to customers’ moods.

And most importantly to managers, employee mood had a clear impact on performance, including both how much work employees did and how well they did it.’
