Here are many articles, keynote slides and videos on Human Resources.... Happynomics is about the link between wealth and happiness. Everyone wants to be happy – most advertisers try to persuade us that the secret of happiness is the next thing we will buy. But we know that long lasting happiness usually depends on many deeper things: friendship, strong family relationships, good health, personal fulfilment and so on. It is hard to be happy if you have many worries about money, too little or too much. In fact great wealth brings many pressures of its own. Happynomics is about the economics of happiness. Contentment can be measured not only in individuals but also in communities, or indeed across entire nations, looking at a national sense of well-being. On a national level, Happynomics surveys show that happyness is enhanced to varying degrees by wealth, education, peaceful government and trust, but weakened by things like corruption, insecurity and unemployment. Happiness is a dominant concept in marketing, customer loyalty, product design and workplace motivation.

Why is it that work-life balance is so often talked about, and so little shown? Work-life balance is the key to developing high-performance teams. Keynote to European Commission. I have spoken to audiences in over 50 nations about these and other issues, and wherever I go in industrialised nations, people talk about getting a better balance – especially women. Surveys show that work-life balance is number one or two priority for those leaving business schools. In a recent UK survey, 6 out of 10 of 25-35 year olds said they were looking for a higher purpose at work. The more passionate people are about the work they do, the less they complain about work-life balance.
