Happiness

Mar 27, 2020 | E:252

As we continue to move through extremely troubled and confusing times, I decided it would be good to have an episode about happiness. My guest this week is Nic Marks, a statistician who specialises in happiness and well being. In our conversation, we talk about the importance of happiness at work and how you can measure it. Nic also shares a lot of practical advice on how leaders can help improve the happiness of their teams in our current challenging times.

In the interview, we discuss:

• What does happiness actual mean

• The benefits of happiness at work

• Applying statistical thinking to measure happiness

• What can leaders be doing in the current crisis to improve the happiness of their teams

• The five main drivers of happiness at work

• Happiness in the recruiting process

• The future of happiness
