Welcome to EMPLOYEE HAPPINESS SUMMIT 2023

If you are passionate about creating fundamental and sustainable change for your employees, your workplace and yourself, then this is the right platform for you!

Welcome To Employee Happiness Summit 2023

A premier B2B event for enhancing employee happiness, setting new standards for modern working to break the mould and create a people-centric culture where employees thrive!

Happiness at work and a happy employee can be of a strategic advantage if approached from the right direction. Employee happiness is a fairly straightforward concept referring to the state of having a positive attitude and outlook on one’s work. Happy people are excited to go to their workplace. They enjoy what they do and the people they work with. They have high levels of employee engagement and job satisfaction.

In recent years, employee happiness has become a core focus of most progressive and profitable organizations worldwide. But just because employee happiness is a relatively simple idea doesn’t mean it’s easy to achieve in your organization. It requires deliberate thought and effort from HR professionals to create a positive employee experience throughout the entire employee lifecycle. In light of a new working environment and swiftly changing employee preferences, organizations are taking radical steps to ensure employee well-being that supports their productivity and career growth. Whether it is a hybrid working model or extending additional benefits, organizations are beginning to reflect the changed mindsets of the people they employ.

The summit will touch base upon the requisite factors/ elements in workplace/ employee happiness which are meaningful roles, a team atmosphere, work-life balance, being appreciated, and having growth opportunities.

During the summit, we take a deep dive into the root cause of many of today's challenges and re-examine our workspaces, policies, and how our people management is integrated into our overall business strategy and health. The event promises panel discussions and case studies that will showcase the importance of high-impact, purpose-driven employee engagement strategies through a lens that focuses on how organisational culture, collaboration, wellbeing and leadership buy-in are the key to breeding high-performing, engaged and happy teams.
