Tahira Endean on Joy as a KPI (or why live events need to be more joyful)

The Human Risk Podcast

What if joy became the most important metric when we organised events? Or, to put it another way, why are so many events uninspiring and not very joyful?Episode SummaryOn this episode, I'm joined by event strategist, educator, and author Tahira Endean to explore a provocative question: what if we measured events not just by financial metrics, but by the joy they deliver?Drawing from her new book Our KPI is Joy: How Live Events Catalyze Happiness, Productivity and Trust, Tahira shares deep insights from decades of experience curating and designing events at scale, including her work with IMEX, one of the largest global gatherings in the meetings and events industry. We discuss why so many events feel soul-crushingly mediocre and how that reflects a fundamental misunderstanding of what people really need when they come together. Tahira challenges the industry's obsession with surface-level logistics and proposes a reorientation around human experience.She unpacks everything from the science of connection and discomfort to the power of design, food, space, and unexpected joy to foster trust and productivity. Whether you're an event professional, a business leader, or simply someone who's sat through one too many lifeless conferences, this conversation will challenge how you think about convening people. We discuss beanbags, sound baths, shrimp, secret handshakes, and how small design decisions can profoundly impact how people feel, learn, and connect. And that's what makes joy — not an emoji or indulgence — but a powerful performance indicator.Guest Bio: Tahira EndeanTahira is an experienced event strategist, educator, and co-founder of Strategy Table. She serves as Head of Programme for IMEX, where she curates content for two of the world's largest MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conventions, and Exhibitions) industry gatherings in Frankfurt and Las Vegas. With over three decades in the events industry, Tahira has developed a reputation for her forward-thinking approach to event design and human-centric experiences. She teaches event strategy and design, is a passionate advocate for experiential innovation, and brings a behavioural lens to the way we bring people together. She believes in the power of micro-moments, psychological safety, and events as catalysts for human connection and organisational trust.AI-Generated Timestamp Summary0:00:02 - 0:14:48: Maximizing Event Joy for ProductivityThe episode kicks off with a discussion on how joy can be a key performance indicator (KPI) for events. Tahira Endeen, an experienced event strategist, talks about why many events end up being mediocre and how small design changes can significantly enhance the experience. The conversation highlights the importance of joy in fostering happiness, productivity, and trust during gatherings, challenging the traditional business mindset to value joy as much as other KPIs. 0:14:48 - 0:29:08: Designing Events for Human ConnectionThis segment delves into the principles of intentional event design. Tahira and the host explore how creating environments that balance comfort and stimulation can lead to more meaningful interactions and learning experiences. They discuss examples like the 11th International Conference on AIDS, where well-designed events led to groundbreaking innovations. The focus is on nurturing individual experiences over catering to the masses.0:29:08 - 0:37:32: Designing Thoughtful & Engaging EventsThe focus here is on fostering connections and joy in professional events through thoughtful design. Strategies like facilitating introductions by senior managers and organising diverse breakout sessions are explored. The segment underscores the importance of measuring engagement and joy, emphasizing a human-centered approach that considers attendees' needs and enhances productivity and satisfaction.0:37:32 - 0:49:24: Embracing Experimentation and FailureTahira shares insights on the value of experimentation and adaptability in event planning. Through a personal anecdote, she illustrates how innovative ideas, initially met with scepticism, can yield significant benefits. The conversation encourages making small changes, embracing failures as learning opportunities, and maintaining a proactive attitude to achieve unexpected successes. 0:49:24 - 1:01:30: Navigating Event Chaos for SuccessThe episode explores the beauty of embracing imperfections in event planning. Tahira and the host discuss how handling mistakes with grace and humour can add charm to events. They advocate for flexibility in event processes to enhance experiences for both speakers and attendees, maintaining the magic even amidst logistical challenges.LinksIMEX Events - https://imexevents.com/Strategy Table - https://strategytable.co/Our KPI is Joy Book - https://www.amazon.com/Our-KPI-Joy-Happiness-Productivity-ebook/dp/B0DXVX6XX8Tahira on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/tahira-endean-msc-citp-cmp-ced-918a868/?

“The essence of art is taking life's randomness and shaping it into something meaningful.” — Lina Chern Lina Chern's debut mystery Play the Fool earned major acclaim, winning the 2024 Mary Higgins Clark Award. Now she's back with Tricks of Fortune, a darker, more nuanced follow-up inspired by a real-life incident in her community. In this candid conversation, Lina and Mike talk about the writer's true superpower (curiosity), the difference between myth and reality, and how life experience shapes better storytelling. If you're a fan of crime fiction, writing craft, or simply love hearing about the creative process, this episode is for you. Key Takeaways: Writing is a skill, not a lightning strike: Lina shares how persistence and practice mattered far more than innate talent in becoming a successful author. The author's true superpower: It's not stringing pretty sentences together — it's following deep curiosity wherever it leads. Turning fact into fiction: Tricks of Fortune draws emotional truth from a real crime, but is highly fictionalized to respect the complexity of the story. Myth vs. Reality: The story explores how public figures (especially law enforcement) often cultivate myths that later unravel — rich territory for fiction. Writing with life experience: Lina feels her later-in-life writing career has benefited from deeper insight into people and the world. The pressure of book two: Success brings new expectations — from balancing new and returning readers to writing on deadline. The joy of writing community: Conventions, author events, and connecting with fellow writers has become a huge source of inspiration and camaraderie.

Mervyn and Nicki dive into the nitty-gritty of convention schedule logistics, which might be helpful for artists who are starting out.  Mervyn discusses some of the history of Artist Alley and advocates for corner booth supremacy as Nicki warns people against heading out the same day as a convention ends (at least if you can help it!) and keeping your eyes peeled for local, non-convention events to participate in.

LW1457 - Straying from Conventions Everybody complains about dandelions in their yard, but photographically they are just gorgeous little plants. Who among us has not photographed a dandelion once it's gone to seed? This has me thinking about other botanical subjects. Photographs of roses, orchids, peonies, calla lilies, all well and good. But why does no one ever photograph poison ivy, thistle, mullein, and all the other weeds against which we are so prejudiced? The artist's role is to be a seer, and it appears that part of being a seer is to let go of our prejudices.

Tune in here to this Thursday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show! Brett kicks off the program by talking about the ongoing tax cut debate and what he sees as the disappointing response from supposed conservatives. He expresses disbelief that his audience—whom he considers smart—is falling for political distractions and failing to support what he believes is a crucial tax cut. Drawing comparisons to Hillary Clinton, Moses, and even WWE, Brett accuses some conservatives of abandoning their principles when political pressure rises. He criticizes figures like Marjorie Taylor Greene and Lindsey Graham while warning that giving up now will lead to a return to Obama-era tax policies We're joined by Mark Lynch from South Carolina to talk about the “big beautiful bill” and his potential run for U.S. Senate in 2026. Lynch, a businessman and ordained deacon, strongly supports former President Donald Trump and criticizes Senator Lindsey Graham for opposing the bill and focusing on foreign policy in Ukraine. He accuses Graham of prioritizing defense contractor interests and speculates about possible misconduct. Lynch also shares concerns about inflation and immigration, blaming the Biden administration for economic struggles and claiming unmarked buses are transporting undocumented individuals into communities. Later we’re joined by Breaking Brett Jensen to discuss the North Carolina Republican Convention underway in Greensboro. Reporting live from the convention center, Jensen highlights the early arrivals, including major GOP figures like Michael Whatley and Jason Simmons, as well as candidates and speakers such as Virginia Foxx, Addison McDowell, and Mark Harris. He shares an exclusive interview with Dave Warren, former head of election integrity for the NCGOP, who helped launch a statewide and eventually national effort to monitor all precincts with legal oversight.

Constitutional Conventions: Theories, Practices and Dynamics (Routledge, 2025) is an excellent edited volume exploring the various ways in which governments and constitutional structures operate in the spaces that are not necessarily articulated in law, edict, or formal documents. This is not a text about the folks who gathered together in 1787 in Philadelphia, or even those who wrote new constitutional structures after the fall of the Berlin Wall. Conventions means the rules that govern the interactions between political actors and the governments they inhabit. In many ways, this refers to the kinds of norms that have grown up around different parts of the systems of government. The strength and endurance of those rules or norms can change over time and in response to crises or dynamic changes. Constitutional Conventions: Theories, Practices, and Dynamics explores these thick and thin dimensions of the governing structures from a comparative perspective, taking up Anglo and American systems in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia. The book also examines the cases of Hungary and Czechia (the Czech Republic), two post-Cold War systems; and finally, also, China. In considering these constitutional conventions, we can think of them as structures or engagement that is not enforced by the courts, since these are not, per se, written constitutional laws. In long standing liberal democracies, there is an inclination towards adhering to conventions. But when these conventions are under strain, how they work, or maintain “regular order” becomes a critical test within the established governmental systems. Constitutional Conventions provides another dimension of significant interest in the discussion of how China works within these kinds of conventions within the process in which political individuals come up through the governmental and party systems and move into leadership roles. The comparative case study of Hungary and Czechia indicates that even in somewhat similar structures, the conventions and norms are not always the same. Constitutional Conventions: Theories, Practices, and Dynamics is an important analysis of the ways in which governmental structures work beyond what is written or built as the official system. The discussions cover theoretical, practical, and comparative dimensions of our understandings of the processes and functions of governments. Lilly J. Goren is a professor of political science at Carroll University in Waukesha, WI. She is co-editor of The Politics of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (University Press of Kansas, 2022), as well as co-editor of the award winning book, Women and the White House: Gender, Popular Culture, and Presidential Politics (University Press of Kentucky, 2012), Email her comments at lgoren@carrollu.edu or send her missives at Bluesky @gorenlj.
