Innovation is the lifeblood of today's top-performing teams. But behind the scenes, a hidden threat is slowing progress: employee financial stress.

In our latest whitepaper, Innovation at Risk, we uncover how financial stress is quietly undermining productivity, fueling disengagement, and increasing turnover, especially among globally distributed, high-performing teams.

Key Findings

• 60% of full-time U.S. employees report being stressed about their finances. This stress affects employees at every income level -- even those earning six figures.
• 57% of financially stressed employees say they're distracted at work. That distraction adds up to three or more hours per week (nearly 20 workdays per year) lost to financial worry.
• 56% of financially stressed employees are actively managing personal finance issues during work hours, undermining innovation, decision-making, and day-to-day performance.
• Financially stressed employees are twice as likely to be looking for a new role and less likely to feel loyal or see a future with their employer.

This isn't just a personal finance issue -- it's a business risk. And it's costing companies their competitive edge.
