I love this question and I say YES. But it is not only people that need to understand the basics for happyness, it belongs to leadership training. People are no machines that have a function. We passed this mindset long ago. People want to be happy, yes and in most companies they are unhappy. The yearly survey shows it again and again.
But why is change so hard? Perhaps they are no role models? It is against the culture to smile? Read the article and try today. Claudia Schmitz, Köln

Today - March 7th - one day before 100 year's celebrations - one good article in the German Handelsblatt: Thomas Heilmann wrote a long article about the "Glass Ceiling" and makes very clear: Whatever they do in the companies, the Glass Ceiling exists. And the German Corporate Government-System as such is resistant for change. In Germany the time of a board member is the longest in Europe. He also makes clear: To be member of the Board, in the German System, requires a different view of a person as required for a management position.

The film: "Made in Dagenham" (
We want Sex called in Germany!) is a dramatization of the 1968 strike at the Ford Dagenham car plant, where

Have a look at the trailer

I like to introduce to you a very special woman, a
role model, an activist for Humanity and Peace. It is Jane Goodall, an
English Lady, who went to Africa in her 20ies to study chimpanzees in
Tanzania. (What a great mother she had to join her!) She changed her
life in 1984 when she saw that we destroy the nature that we live in.
She became an activist and started several groups in the world,
