À propos de cet audio

Discover the key to positive workplaces and better results from one of Britain's most successful leaders.

'Mr Timpson is a role model as an employer. Other businesses could learn from his approach.' The Guardian

____________________________________________________________

The Happy Index: a tool designed to measure and enhance workplace satisfaction, boost morale and empower teams.

______________________________

James Timpson is renowned for leading with empathy and understanding, often by example. His acclaimed people-first approach to management empowers colleagues, putting measurable job satisfaction at the heart of corporate strategy.

The Happy Index invites readers into a world where employee happiness isn't just a buzzword – it's a powerful catalyst for success that should be at the core of any successful organisation. Drawing on his decades of experience leading one of Britain’s best-loved high-street brands, Timpson shares the secrets behind his unique approach to ‘upside-down’ management. His infectious passion for people shines through every page and in the very real measures he has introduced – from days off for birthdays to free-to-use luxury holiday homes. And with a workforce comprised of at least 10 per cent ex-offenders at any one time, Timpson shows the value of an imaginative approach to hiring, with a staff retention rate to be proud of.

From a leader who knows what it takes to build thriving organisations, The Happy Index gives companies, start-ups and leaders the tools they need to bring Timpson’s revolutionary approach to their working lives.

Underwhelming

Had high hopes after catching James on the BBC podcast, but the book fell short by attempting to cover too many areas without delving into anything substantial. The advice comes off as mostly feel-good, high-moral-ground stuff that doesn't fully consider the realities of how things work in the real world. For example, James advocates for private equity to invest in training the employees of the firms they acquire so they would then have a good story to tell their grandchildren. Really?
