Our special guest on this episode is Henry Stewart, who not only named his company 'Happy', he helps other companies become happy too.
It took a Damascene epiphany for Henry to change from self-confessed micro-manager into a CEO who makes no decisions. Since then, Henry has transformed his company into one that not only practices what it preaches, it positively ploughs the furrow by experimenting with new ways of working and challenging accepted wisdom when it comes to creating effective, productive and most of all happy workplaces.
Henry and Happy are well-known for their programmes for leaders and organisations that want to create more joy at work. In this Punks episode we quiz him on his methods, his inspiration, his successes and his 'failures'.

When the boss steps out of the role of 'decision approver,' the entire business speeds up and innovation increases."
