I was recently interviewed by Elizabeth Plouffe on her Across the Desk podcast. This is a re-broadcast of her podcast! In this episode we talk about the Happy Melly ecosystem is helping people understand the importance of workplace happiness, how we can focus on understanding what in our system is affected when we want to introduce change and more! We also talk about the upcoming Happy Melly Exploration Day which is the first in-person Happy Melly event worldwide! The Lean Change Management podcast will be back in 2017 while I focus on other stuff for the remainder of 2016.
