A Chief Happiness Officer is foremost an educator, and when I completed the international study program organized by Woohoo, a global workplace leadership community, I noticed the thread that ran through my MBA studies here in Iceland and my undergraduate education in Denmark, where I focused on social education.
The goal - and the focus I bring to each of my clients - is the pursuit of "a world where happiness at work is the rule rather than the exception." This goal is pursued on the back of a proven methodology "to enable anyone and everyone to be champions of happiness at work."
There’s also the opportunity to influence the broader conversation about happiness in society, which, in a small way, I approach through my podcast.
My commitment to bringing happiness to the work place - based on measurable improvements in listening and tangible applications of gratitude, is built on a strong foundation at home. I am indeed grateful for my wife and my twins (a boy and a girl) and they test and train me in listening all the time.
