Happy employees aren’t a nice thing to have, they’re the 21st-century competitive edge.
Why? Because happy employees, among other things like being great to be around and being awesome team players, are also:
So, while many companies are still focusing on productivity measures, performance incentives, and other short-term solutions, those who truly get the power is in their people are investing where it counts – engagement.
Engaged employees feel more connected to their colleagues, are more invested in the company’s success and its goals, and are more willing to go the extra mile to make them happen.
They are more responsive to challenges, better problem-solvers, more resilient, and more able to manage stress (and avoid the all-too-prevalent burnout). Not to mention they’re more fun to be around and awesome team players.
With an average of 40+ hours a week at our ‘jobs’ and 40+ years in our working life, 21st-century workers are now wanting far more from their 9-to-5 than a paycheck. And if you employ Millennials – even more so.
If your company would benefit from:
Then you’d hugely benefit from putting employees (or specific teams) through our innovative Joy@Work Programme. It’s a 6-week, online, group experience designed to boost productivity, performance and profits, by helping people tap into and increase their joy at work.
Positive emotion is a natural motivator, so when we incorporate activities that bring bursts of uplifting emotion or focus on long-term activities that bring satisfaction and fulfilment, we can’t help but become more effective and efficient – and produce better results.
Worldwide, a whopping 87% of workers are disengaged (according to Gallup), which leads to people being unproductive, uninspired to do their best and just collecting a payslip. But what if, instead, they were able to tap into something that made an immediate difference to their positivity, their productivity and ultimately their performance? It just takes a simple, sustainable shift, and that’s something that Joy@Work creates.
Great. Here’s what you need to know.
Individuals are welcomed (set dates which we can give you) and teams are celebrated – engaging your whole team in this process creates an even more powerful culture change.
All of the learning modules are prerecorded videos and can be viewed at your convenience, so they are easy to fit in to your busy week.
The weekly group calls are all recorded, so if you can’t make it live, you can catch up when your schedule allows (we want the process, not just the learning to feel easy and fun!).
There will be an online forum where you can connect with the group, where you can go for inspiration, to ask questions, and share challenges or wins you’ve had between the live calls.
To make sure you get the support and attention you need to implement everything you will be learning, group size will be a maximum of 20 people.
Joining as an individual to set dates on the online programme is £550 per person.
To enroll, simply email us for more info.
Or to run Joy@Work as a bespoke programme for your team, options are also available. Again just get in touch and we’ll set up a time to chat.
To find out more information about how Joy At Work could help you or your organisation, contact us and we’ll respond to you right away.
This masterclass is designed for women who are interested in discovering how to transform their current experience of perimenopause and menopause into greater personal and professional power.
Menopause is a transformative part of a woman’s life that can lead to greater awareness and empowerment, both in and out of the workplace. It is one of the most commonly neglected and yet crucial areas of overall female wellbeing that needs to be addressed.
Menopause is marked by complex hormonal changes that have a serious impact on our female body as well as our mental and emotional health. It is characterised by multiple symptoms: hot flushes, weight gain, fatigue, insomnia, memory loss, mood swings and low libido, to mention but a few.
In this session, we will unravel not just the most debilitating aspects, but also the ones that cause a silent yet deep suffering. We shall explore the importance of a hormonal balance, as well as nutritional support and management of our mental-emotional needs. One of the most commonly neglected and yet crucial areas of overall wellness are the emotions that arise around the time of menopause. The main ones include: anger, resentment, frustration, feeling devalued, sad and out of control. Menopause brings a sense of loss with regards to our youth, femininity, beauty, the “empty nest” syndrome, divorce or even death of our partner. As a result, we can experience deep grief and depression during this time.
In this interactive session, which can be delivered in anything from a 1 or 2 hour masterclass, to half a day or whole day workshop, you will come away with an uplifting perspective and effective solutions on how to feel better and sail through this transformative time.
Menopause’s ultimate invitation is not to be defined by who we no longer are, but who we are and to make the rest of our life the best of our life. It is our rite of passage and a journey of personal alchemy and authenticity.
If you’d like to book this session for the women in your organisation click here and we’ll get right back to you.
Ever felt like a fraud at work? You’re not alone and it’s more common than you think. Over 70% of people have experienced the feeling of being a fake at one time in their life. Take these quotes for example
You think, “Why would anyone want to see me again in a movie? And I don’t know how to act anyway, so why am I doing this?
– Meryl Streep
The philosopher Bertrand Russell wrote:
The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, and wiser people so full of doubts
The vast array of problems we face as human beings require the best people to step up. But many hold back because they feel that luck, rather than ability, lies behind their successes. They dread that one day, some person or event will expose them for the fraud that deep down they believe themselves to be. Far from being a realistic self-assessment, the impostor syndrome mind-trap prevents people from believing in themselves, to the detriment of us all.
When I was younger, I just did it. I just acted. It was just there. So now when I receive recognition for my acting, I feel incredibly uncomfortable. I tend to turn in on myself. I feel like an impostor. It was just something I did.
– Emma Watson
Ever felt like a fraud? Had that nagging feeling that you’ll be found out, or are you waiting to feel more confident before you realise your plans or your goals? In this interactive session, delivered as 1.5 hour workshop (and can also be run for a longer durations if required), we’ll dive into uncovering the keys to confidence and overcoming imposter syndrome. You will uncover what drives you, learn how to identify, challenge and replace unhelpful limiting thoughts and beliefs and be introduced to the concept of imposter syndrome. You’ll come away with new strategies, tools and an action plan and uncover an altogether more confident you.
In a 1.5 hour session we’ll cover:
When I won the Oscar, I thought it was a fluke. I thought everybody would find out, and they’d take it back. They’d come to my house, knocking on the door, “Excuse me, we meant to give that to someone else. That was going to Meryl Streep” – Jodie Foster

The best predictor of your future happiness is your willingness to choose happiness now” Happiness Research
This masterclass is designed for women who are interested in discovering real happiness in the present and how to maintain it in the future in an authentic and sustainable way.
Women often prioritise the needs of others over their own and this can have a significant impact on their levels of happiness, both in, as well as outside the workplace. This can lead to resentment, greater sensitivity to stress and feeling more vulnerable to depression, if left unchecked.
A happy person is not a person in a certain set of circumstances, but rather a person with a certain set of attitudes” Hugh Downs
Do you want to feel happier? The good news is that you can. Whether you have been feeling sad, down or depressed you can learn how to feel happier because happiness levels are not fixed. Happiness is not a matter of luck or status, it is created by certain ways of thinking and behaving. We will explore the blocks and myths of happiness, how to overcome unhappiness and cultivate habits and tools that help you to feel good and happier in the now and future. In this interactive session, which can be delivered in anything from 1- or 2 hour masterclass to half a day or whole day workshop, you will come away with a fresh perspective and new skills to experience greater joy in both your personal and professional life.

Preethi teaches the front end of storytelling (how to tell a great story and present it well) but more profoundly, she understands the immense transformational power storytelling has; how by changing a narrative, you can unleash great personal power.
