13 Self-Awareness, Happiness and Leadership with Matthew Phelan
Matt Phelan is Co-Founder & Co-CEO of The Happiness Index He's focused on sharing the vision of Freedom To Be Human with a global audience.
Matt is happiest when spending time with loved ones, particularly anything that is outdoors in nature.
What does Matt say about himself on Seedrs?
I started my first business, a marketing agency, in 2008 right before the last big financial crisis. Although I can’t recommend starting a business when the world is in melt-down, we certainly had to learn a lot of lessons very quickly at the time!
My first business was actually integral to building The Happiness Index. Not only did the idea come from one of our customers (who is now our Chief Marketing Officer), but our CTO at the time built V1 of our product. It was initially an in-house solution we used! Quickly our customers started asking to use it too, and now we provide a platform that’s used by thousands of people across over 100 countries.
What is The Happiness Index (from Seedrs)?
In a nutshell, we provide a SaaS platform that helps HR and People professionals measure their team’s happiness and engagement. Traditionally, emotions are left out of the workplace, but neuroscience shows us that we need to unite both the head and the heart. By understanding how employees are thinking and feeling, businesses will thrive.
Matt is the author of Freedom To Be Happy: The Business Case for Happiness.
Matt also did a TED talk in 2022. Here's a link to Matt's TEDx Brighton talk
