Research from Alex Edmans, Professor of Finance at London Business School, reveals the financial value of great workplace culture. Edmans created a simulated stock portfolio of UK-based, publicly traded companies from the Best Workplaces™ Lists ; exploring the returns of this ‘Best Workplaces portfolio’ vs. FTSE All-Share Index over a 23-year period, from 2001 to 2023. The results found that if you had started a stock portfolio of the UK’s Best Workplaces™ in 2001, with an investment of just £100, you would have seen more than 4-times the returns of a similar investment in the FTSE All-Share.

It really does start at the top with me, and leaders, in terms of role modelling the behaviours, but also just role modelling that culture of kindness and happiness. And without completely oversimplifying it, just try to be relaxed. I try to have a laugh, a smile on my face. I will go and speak to people a lot. And I’ve certainly found that puts people at ease. If people see that the leader seems like things are okay, it kind of just cascades down and people feel comfortable, happy, and can perform at their best. – Mark Dolan, Managing Director of Nuby UK
