Matt Phelan joins me live and direct from this years CIPD conference in my home town of Manchester. Matt is the Co-Founder and Co-CEO of The Happiness Index and is passionate about his mission to improve the way organizations treat people. A mission that completely aligns with my values.
 
The Happiness Index helps organizations measure the key employee engagement and happiness drivers to power their people strategy. Underpinned by neuroscience, The Happiness Index platform will help you understand how your people think, feel and behave. Their data-driven insights will enable you to boost retention, productivity and performance.
 
In this episode, Matt and I discuss:
Why measuring emotions at work matters
How measuring engagement and happiness impacts your people decisions
Why we need to rethink the statement "if you can measure it, you can manage it."
How to become more proactive in recognizing disengaged or unhappy employees
How to gain freedom through disconnecting from social media

 
Matt has also graciously agreed to send ten free copies of his book "Freedom To Be Happy" to the first ten listeners of this show. So if you want to win a free copy of his book, send the words #freedomtobehappy along with your address to contactus@hratheart.co, and I will share your information with Matt so that you can get your free copy of his book. Winners of this competition will be announced across our social media.
