Matt Phelan sits down with Madalena Carey, founder of Happiness Business School, to explore a serious question: Why are over 90% of her clients reporting anxiety and burnout linked directly to the labour they do?This isn't a chat about faking a smile. Madalena explains the real science that drives the Happiness Business School philosophy. True positive psychology isn't about ignoring negative emotions. It's about understanding them. We discuss how your brain is wired for risk and why you must remove the organisational roadblocks to truly "optimise" the lives of your people.It's simple elegance: Happiness is a performance metric. Madalena shares data from major scientific studies that prove the link: when your people feel good, they are consistently more creative, energetic, and committed.Curious how one person's journey inspired a movement to humanise the workplace through data?Listen in to learn how to change your perspective when you can't change the toxic culture itself.

We've seen disengagement as a simple lack of productivity. But what if it's a profound, internal psychological experience? In this conversation, Matt Phelan talks with Dr. Siobhan Renshaw, an organisational psychologist. Her research redefines disengagement, revealing it as an emotionally charged response to perceived vulnerability, deeply linked to identity and survival.Discover her "aha moment": disengagement is internal, not always visible, and can even be a positive coping mechanism. It protects individuals, preventing more drastic actions like leaving.We explore the critical role of managers. While they don't cause disengagement, they significantly influence the conditions that lead to it. To truly support your people, leaders must adopt a nuanced view and invest in managers, fostering self-awareness and human connection.This isn't just theory. It's about transforming your approach to employee wellbeing and unlocking genuine performance. Curious? Tune in!

"Happiness comes from a wide variety of different sources. And actually happiness is not the one single thing that we should pursue because part of being human is the whole world of emotion and feelings. And all of them are valid." Gavin Andrews   In this episode, we explore the concept of mind-body connection and its implication for workplaces. The excerpts  highlight the importance of understanding and embracing emotions and feelings as a part of human intelligence rather than suppressing it. Guests share insights on navigating emotional data, enhancing emotional intelligence at a large scale in organisations, the power of belonging, importance of feelings, and the intersection of emotions and rationality. The conversation also emphasises the need for leaders to understand employee emotions, challenge unconscious biases, and foster a greater sense of belonging in the team.

If you look after your employees, your customers will be happier, and you'll make more money. That's the hypothesis Matt Phelan took, inspired by Richard Branson. But with that hypothesis in place, where's the data to back it up?Before founding the Happiness Index, Matt began working with animals, then studied marketing, starting his own digital marketing agency just before the 2008 financial crash. As someone used to tracking the efficacy of digital campaigns, he began to explore how the assumption that happier employees meant more money could be proven.Takeaways from Pia and Dan Relationships are the primary driver of happiness. Humans have set points – almost predetermined levels of happiness we return to, after a peak or a trough. Bring a happy person into an unhappy team, and that person's happiness will dip. To build better relationships, we need to express our emotions.

Is there a correlation between employee happiness and customer happiness? Can emotions be translated into data to show the relationship between engagement in the workplace and the top 4 happiness drivers?   The Happiness Index co-founder Matt Phelan discusses how to analyse data on employee happiness, engagement and productivity from a neuroscience perspective, coaching his clients to use data to make effective decisions for their businesses.    Matt believes people are the future of technology, and explains what it takes for an organisation to thrive. He correlates a thriving business with a high happiness score on the Index, along with a high engagement score. Matt shows how a low happiness score even with high engagement does not lead to a culture of thriving; and he brings neuroscience into the workplace to make sense of the data.   The Happiness Index data shows the current "Great Resignation" in the UK to be emotionally driven, not rationally driven. Psychological safety; freedom to take opportunities; feelings of acknowledgement; and positive relationships are shown to be the top four happiness drivers in the workplace. Matt states that although the order of importance of some of these happiness drivers differs culturally -  across the world the number one factor affecting employee happiness is having positive relationships in the workplace.    Matt is the author of Freedom to be Happy.   Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=et14son4N5M   Connect with Matt: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/matthewphelan/ Website: http://www.thehappinessindex.com/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/Matthewphelan Email: matt@thehappinessindex.com     Helping SME's build resilient, high performing teams and businesses, quickly, so they can innovate, deliver, and thrive.   The SME's I work with typically struggle/suffer/ with one or more of these challenges: - no clear strategy - dysfunctional team dynamics - not knowing their vision or mission - feeling stuck and procrastinating - business not growing - leadership challenges   If you want support in helping your organisation thrive, do get in contact with me: https://www.julianrobertsconsulting.com
