inspire?

 Are you living a life of no
regrets?
 When you have a purpose you
approach life differently The Golden Circle by Simon Sinek
LAW OF DIMINISHING MARGINAL UTILITY
“As a consumer consumes more
and more units of a specific
commodity, the utility from the
successive units goes on
diminishing”.

“The additional benefit which a

person derives from an increase
of his stock of a thing diminishes
with every increase in the stock
that already has”.

Mr. H. Gossen (German economist, 1854) + Alfred Marshal

EVOLUTIONARY HAPPINESS

[Gary Becker and Luis Rayo (Evolutionary Efficiency and Happiness,

Journal of Political Economy, 2007)]
WHY IS IT SO HARD TO BE HAPPY?
 We are always comparing what we have with something else
 With social media, we are now comparing ourselves to
everybody else in the world
 Digital in 2017 Report:
 Half of the world is now online (3.77B users)
 Philippine social media penetration rate: 58% (compared to 47%
average in Southeast Asia)
 Mobile platform: 38% of all web traffic
 Filipinos spent an average of 4 hours 17 minutes per day on social
media sites such as Facebook, Snapchat, and Twitter [Brazil: 3hrs
43mins; US: 2hrs 6secs; Japan: 40 mins].
SOME INSIGHTS
 Try to look at employees in a wholistic sense
 Acknowledge that it is difficult for a person to be an effective
and efficient employee if he/she faces many personal
problems and struggles
 Motivation is key
 Conduct an assessment of training and learning needs
 Develop your officials’ knowledge and interest in HR and OD
 Develop department heads into department managers
SOME INSIGHTS
 Incentives don’t always have to be monetary –
Recognition goes a long way
 Learn from other LGUs and agencies
 Utilize and maximize technology
