Happiness isn’t a business strategy. But it might be your competitive advantage.
OptiMe Pulse helps organisations measure employee wellbeing, engagement and workplace experience through regular, anonymous check-ins — with a white-label option for partners who want to run it as their own.
Anonymous by default · Minimum five responses per report · GDPR compliant · UK & EU hosted

Why the workplace experience is a business metric
Business leaders aren’t responsible for making people happy. Happiness is shaped by health, relationships, finances and personal circumstances — far more than working life alone. Measuring happiness as a business objective would be unrealistic.
But dismissing it altogether could be a missed opportunity. Research from the University of Oxford, in a study of nearly 1,800 BT call-centre employees, found those who reported higher levels of happiness were around 13% more productive than their colleagues.
The workplaces people love aren’t defined by unlimited coffee or the latest perks. They’re places where people feel trusted, respected and valued — where they understand how their work contributes and feel able to perform at their best. Those experiences influence motivation, collaboration, innovation and retention.
OptiMe Pulse is how you measure them.
Start with better questions
None of these questions asks whether someone is happy. Instead, they focus on the environment leaders create every day. Get the foundations right and happiness often becomes a natural outcome rather than an unrealistic expectation.
- Do people feel trusted to do their jobs?
- Do they understand how their work contributes to organisational goals?
- Can they raise concerns or share ideas without fear of judgement?
- Do managers have the skills to support people through pressure?
- Do employees feel recognised when they've done a good job?
