Ep 160 – The secret to building a happy team with Richard Clarke
Manage episode 413779166 series 2436396
As leaders we’d all like to have happy teams but how do we create the right environment to achieve that? I interview Richard Clarke, creator of the popular Happy Teams substack newsletter, about his experience building a company centred on team happiness and the work he does helping companies create happier teams.
We discuss…
- What makes people happy at work
- The 5 factors that influence team happiness
- Who is responsible for your team’s happiness
Richard Clarke is the founder and ex-CEO of Secret Source, an IT company based in Spain. In 2014 he had a theory, if he set up a company whose main KPIs were team and client happiness then the team would collaborate better, be more aligned with their clients and perform better and all the traditional measures of success, profit, revenue, growth would naturally follow. For 10 years Richard studied the science of happiness in the workplace and applied it in his company. In 2022, with almost 50 employees Richard handed over the role of CEO and he now dedicates his life to sharing his knowledge. He writes, speaks and teaches leaders and organisations how to use the science of happiness and wellbeing to build better teams.
