Learn how to use the science of wellbeing to build better, happier teams.

About me

When I was 18 I had no idea what career I wanted to pursue, all I knew was that I wanted to do something that made me happy. Unfortunately I had no idea what that was. So, I set out on a journey around the world trying to work out the secret.

Forty five countries and twenty years later I realised that for me to be happy I need to make others happy. The more the better. So in 2014 I set up Secret Source, an IT company whose main KPIs were team and client happiness. For eight years I immersed myself in the science and academic research on workplace wellbeing, workplace happiness and team performance and I applied my findings in our company. It was a long journey with many ups and downs but it was worth it. Secret Source is a genuinely special place.

Now, I teach happiness in the workplace: how to use the science of well-being to build better teams - teams that collaborate more effectively, innovate more, and stay together longer.
