Your Guide to Heart-Centered Leadership
For executive leaders keen on fostering a vibrant, resilient, and productive organization, focusing on employee happiness and well-being is more than just a noble idea - it's a strategic necessity.
Tia Graham, the founder of Arrive at Happy and bestselling author of 'Be a Happy Leader,' has a proposition: leverage the science of happiness to optimize your organization's performance. The proof of her transformative approach is best illustrated by the experience of leaders who have taken this journey.
Leon Young, the area managing director for Ace, New Orleans, and Maison, shared his experience after a recent Arrive at Happy retreat: "I think it helped us look at ourselves as a tool for figuring out how can we not only be happy personally, but also how do we project that out to our employees and give them tools to be happy, to center themselves and move forward in a world that sometimes is full of negativity. This really is going to help us build on the things that we were already putting in place."
With a portfolio of leadership development programs from Malibu to Peru, Vancouver to the Bay Area, and an extensive repertoire of online programs developed during the pandemic, Graham's approach is versatile and result-oriented.
Organizations typically engage with Arrive at Happy when faced with challenges such as low engagement, subpar productivity, high turnover, or when there is a scope for sales improvement. Also, companies seeking to break down internal silos and foster a more cooperative and harmonious work culture find value in these programs.
From Crimson Rock Capitol, Dionis Rodriguez recently completed a corporate workshop with Graham and stated, "The team had a great time. They learned a lot. We learned how to choose to be happy, how to be happier at work, how to follow up when we make mistakes, how to understand stress from a positive perspective so that we can actually use it positively and not be brought down by it."
Clear goals and measurable outcomes drive each intervention Graham leads. The process includes a deep dive into engagement scores, turnover rates, and revenue potential, ensuring transparency and alignment with business objectives.
These leadership development programs are designed to be interactive and highly engaging, with a blend of online and in-person sessions. The outcomes include equipping leaders with a toolkit of practical strategies and instilling a sense of energy and optimism that resonates throughout the organization. Graham always expresses that investing in happiness stimulates business growth - a win-win scenario for all stakeholders.
Happiness is not just a desirable state - it is a business strategy that belongs in business. If you need to explore the power of happiness in transforming your organization's landscape, contact Tia Graham today!
