The Giving Tree

The Giving Tree is India’s most innovative corporate gift house which started way back in 2002, under the name of Craft Corner. We later renamed our brand and organisation to The Giving Tree, because we had outgrown our old avatar of being only a handmade paper product manufacturer. Today, The Giving Tree is a name that stands for innovation, quality and a place where customised gifts become a reality in the most beautiful way.

We are on a mission to make people feel special, when they receive a gift made by us. Over the last 20 years we’ve been delighting our clients and their associates with gifts that impress, express gratitude and build long lasting relationships.

This is a space that is created to showcase organizations across the world that are involved in bringing about the big small changes within. Pioneering innovation each day comes naturally to them as they are out to achieve one goal – creating a happy workplace. In doing so they are inspiring leaders and managers across the board on new and simple ways to bring in joy at the workplace. Creating an environment where culture, productivity and happiness come together seamlessly in an organization is an ongoing process. It is a journey filled with learning, unlearning and relearning simple things that can go a long way in building a happy workforce.

Happiness is an experience that a company creates for its employees in many ways like a well designed office space, breathing zones, greenscapes, good infrastructure like cafeterias, gyms, snooze zones, ergonomic workstations, recognition through rewards and useful, innovative gifts to recognise their contribution and celebrate milestones and so on.

At Happiworkplaces we work towards showcasing these and many more ideas on what go into increasing the happiness quotient at work. A happy workplace – is where productivity, efficiency and great culture thrives. Happiness inspires productivity and gets people to achieve breakthrough results when they are having fun doing what they are doing.

Happiworkplaces aims to bring you, the reader, success stories from across the globe, interviews with entrepreneurs, CEOs and most importantly with the Human Resource Heads of different companies on the various aspects they work with to bring happiness into the workplace and how they make it a sustained one.
