This is one of the most common questions we get, and it really makes sense given the economy and, by extension, companies’ ability to invest in their workplace.  They understandably don’t want to spend any more than is absolutely necessary here.

One way to answer to this question is to benchmark themselves against applicants of our Top Small Company Workplace award with Inc. Magazine.  The process I’ve outlined below will allow you to do this:

1. Click on the title of this post to ensure you’re just looking at this post by itself, and not with the rest of our blog feed.
2. Click here to print this post.
3. On the page that prints out, complete the "Your Firm" column below for each metric/practice of a productive workplace.
4. Once this is done you will get a rough* picture of how your people practices are contributing to your bottom line success.
