80% of Business Leaders See Faith as “Good for Company Culture”

21 Oct, 2022

80% of business leaders say it’s “good for company culture” to encourage employees to be open about their faith, according to a new Deseret News/HarrisX nationally representative poll

A summary of the findings by Deseret News’ Kelsey Dallas notes that while business leaders are at times reluctant to reveal their own faith, they are more open to religion-related programming in the workplace. The survey finds that 8-in-10 business decision-makers say that it’s “good for company culture” to encourage employees to be open about their faith.

Additionally, according to the survey, 3-in-4 business leaders said discussions about religious beliefs make workers happier.

RFBF’s senior corporate advisor Kent Johnson, coming from a 37-year career with Texas Instruments, shared his thoughts on this with Kelsey Dallas. Read more here.
