Past Conferences and Events

Happy has been hosting conferences dedicated to creating happy workplaces since 2013. Each of these events has allowed leaders from other organisations to share their experiences of creating workplaces based on trust, with lots of practical ideas that you can implement at your organisation.

Here you can find video footage, transcripts and PowerPoint presentations of all our past conferences and events.

Speakers at previous events have represented some of the world’s best workplaces, such as Twitter, Google, Innocent, WL Gore (makers of Goretex), the John Lewis Partnership, the National Trust, the National Audit Office, Foundation SP and Propellernet.

Each of our conferences are interactive and engaging, and focused on giving you practical tips and ideas that you can takeaway and implement at your own organisation.
