The attitude employees have towards the company is incredibly important.

Whenever we talk about happy workplaces, a lot of the conversation tends to be about big US corporations with huge budgets like Google, Zappos or Southwest Airlines.
But happiness is possible in (nearly) any industry and in any country.
That’s why I was so excited to talk to Nicolás González Restrepo for our latest Heartcount webinar and learn how the company Contento BPS S.A in Colombia creates a happy culture for their 2,000 people – even in a Latin American machismo culture and even though their main business is as a call center for debt collections.
Learn how they created a great culture and how it helped improve absenteeism, employer brand and financial results.
