The happier your organization’s culture is, the more creative and successful your organization will become. It’s simple: when your employees are happy, they work harder, show more enthusiasm, and try to develop ideas that improve the company’s bottom line.

Business Development for Smart Organizations is my motto because I want to work with organizations that are open minded. They must trust that their people’s happiness is what makes the customer happy. I promise that I won’t come in with some generic idea that I used at my last company. Your company is unique, and if I recycled old ideas it might help for a few weeks, but then it would most certainly fade away. I want lasting change that will improve your company over many years.

I can give you tools that you will start using right away. I believe in taking immediate and consistent action in order to help you and your coworkers enjoy work and deliver great results.

When you work with me, your organization will:

- Improve Communication
- Learn to be Team Players
- Retain the Best Employees
- Expand Customer Loyalty
- Enjoy Each Other’s Differences (A little weirdness is fun)

Creating an atmosphere that encourages happiness will help you improve your bottom line. That’s what business is all about – making customers, employees and each other happy and making good money while doing it.

A Happy Organization is More Successful because:

- HR expert David Maister would disagree with you. He states that companies that enhance employee satisfaction by 20% can improve financial performance by 42%.
- The average cost for a new hire can range up to $15,008 according to Bnet.com. Managers and Upper management are even more expensive to replace. It’s more costly to keep replacing people who leave because they don’t enjoy the work environment.

My specialty is:

Creating a Happy Work Environment - People want to work for an organization that supports happiness and personal growth. And the most talented people want to work for an organization that encourages their people to have fun. Building this type of organization is worth the effort because it helps retain employees, encourages trust, and increases sales through relationship building.

I will tailor my concepts to your style of business, so they stick. I make sure each concept fits with your work environment and lasts. Anyone can suggest a new idea, but making sure that it becomes a habit takes work. Let’s get started today and let’s raise your organization’s level of productivity.

Use Happiness to Your Advantage

Work Happy Now was created to help employees improve their working lives. I love improving people’s work happiness through this blog. The problem is there isn’t as much intimacy. So if you want to create a little more impact and bring more happiness to your organization then invite me in and we’ll create a plan that will help improve sales and customer service, as well as retain your great people.

You will save money in the long run because you’ll retain the best talent, increase employee confidence which will make them more productive, and build customer loyalty because your employees’ happiness will trickle down to the customer.

Why your organization should hire me:

- I love what I do and it shows. I know what it’s like to struggle to enjoy my job. I also know what it’s like to do what I love. I’ve created a program that helps employees find meaning in their work and appreciate their job.
- I create a fun and energetic atmosphere.
- I care. I’m not there to give my presentation, take my money and leave. I’ll stay as long as someone has a question to ask.
- Work Happiness Works. Happy employees spread happiness throughout the whole organization. If your co-worker is happy, you have a 34% increased chance of being happy yourself. (Time December 22, 2008)

I’ve heard all the excuses:

  • I don’t think it would help.
    • HR expert David Maister would disagree with you. He states that companies that enhance employee satisfaction by 20% can improve financial performance by 42%.
  • We are already happy.
    • Your people may be happy, but that doesn’t mean they can’t find ways to take their happiness to the next level.
  • The happiness will not last. We’ll just go back to our same old habits.
    • Of course it won’t last if you don’t continue to practice what I teach. I provide tools that allow your organization to work on improving your happiness every day. It’s really up to each individual employee to want to improve the environment and make it enjoyable. I can teach you how to be happy at work, but I can’t make you happy.
  • My people think they are too cool for a happiness speaker.
    • That may be, but even cool people like to be happy.
  • It’s too expensive.
    • The average cost for a new hire can range up to $15,008 according to Bnet.com. Managers and Upper management are even more expensive to replace. It’s more costly to keep replacing people who leave because they don’t enjoy the work environment.
