global expansion into 19new countries．In this kind of high﹣pressure situation，many leaders bother their assistants
with frequent meetings or flood their in﹣boxes with urgent demands．In doing so，managers lift everyone's anxiety
level，which activates the part of the brain that processes threats and steals resources from the prefrontal cortex （
大脑皮层），which is responsible for effective problem solving．
Burt's Bees's then﹣CEO，John Wolfgang，took a different approach．Each day，he'd send out an e﹣mail praising
a team member for work related to global marketing．He'd interrupt his own presentations to remind his managers to
talk with their teams about the company's values．He asked me to further a three﹣hour session with employees on
happiness in the course of the expansion effort．
As one member of the senior team told me a year later，Wolfgang's emphasis on developing positive leadership kept
his managers actively involved and loyal as they successfully transformed the company into a global one．
That outcome shouldn't surprise us．Research shows that when people work with a positive mind﹣set （思维模
式），performance on nearly every level﹣productivity，creativity，involvement﹣improves．Yet happiness is
perhaps the most misunderstood driver of performance．For one，mostpeople believe that success comes before
happiness．"Once I get a promotion，I'll be happy，"they think．Or，"Once I hit my sales target，I'll feel
great．"But because success is a moving target﹣as soon as you hit your target，you raise it again﹣the happiness
that results from success does not last long．
In fact，it works the other way around：People who have a positive mind﹣set perform better in the face of
challenge．I call this the"happiness advantage"﹣every business outcome shows improvement when the brain is
positive．I've observed this effect in my role as a researcher and lecturer in 48countries on the connection between
employee happiness and success．And I'm not alone：In an analysis of 225academic studies，researchers found 71． 72． 73． 74． 75． 76． 77． 78． 79．
strong evidence of cause﹣and﹣effect relationship between life satisfaction and successful business outcomes． 80． ．
Another common misunderstanding is that our genetics，our environment，or a combination of the two determines
how happy we are．To be sure，both factors have an impact．But one's general sense of well﹣being is surprisingly
unstable．The habits you form，the way you interact with colleagues，how you think about stress﹣all these can be 第五部分：书面表达（满分25分）
