Happiness at Work

What Makes a 'Happy Leader'?


Listen Later

Most of us spend our careers trying to find happiness at work. Sometimes, if we’re lucky, we find it. And, if we’re really lucky, we can spend part of our careers helping others – our employees, coworkers, or even strangers – find that same happiness in their own lives.

Today we sit down with Tia Graham, an international keynote speaker, best-selling author, leadership trainer and "Certified Chief Happiness Officer" with multiple certifications in neuroscience, positive psychology, coaching, and employee retention. Her bestselling book “Be a Happy Leader” offers an eight-step methodology for driving productivity and growth through a culture of happiness.

We discuss her work, her career, and the kinds of things you learn when you dedicate your professional life to being happy at work.

**Have you ever pondered about the following questions?**

  • How do we give people and their happiness the attention they deserve in our organizations and transformations?
  • How do we enable change for people and not push change on people?
  • How do we create the culture and environment we need for people to express themselves?
  • How do we move forward and not get stuck in bureaucratic change management?

Of course you have! That’s why you listen to our podcast. But while podcasts are a one-way street, our Forward Summits are all about interecations. 

So why don’t you come and join the conversation, at our upcoming summit: HAPPINESS AS THE ‘WHY’ IN AGILE TRANSFORMATION, held in Berlin, Germany and online from 30 November – 2 December 2022.

Hear from our kick-ass keynote speakers Sunny Grosso; Svenja Hofert; Debra Corey; and Fransisco Mahfuz. Take part in our practice sessions, case study sessions, open sessions and global networking, both in Berlin and online!
