Change is my passion. Ever since I discovered the science of Positive Psychology in 2005, I’ve known it was where I wanted to work, because it transforms lives. I founded Workmad Ltd in 2008 to bring Positive Psychology into the workplace, to help people from all professional backgrounds learn about Positive Psychology and how to put it into practice to make their lives better. I work in collaboration with other leading Positive Psychologists, such as Dr Ilona Boniwell, with whom I recently developed and delivered a well-being training programme for the UAE Ministry of Happiness in Dubai. I design, develop and deliver evidence-based training programmes, workshops and CPD in business, health & education sectors to enhance well-being, resilience & performance. I’ve run the popular 4-day Positive Psychology Masterclass with my MAPP colleague Miriam Akhtar for over 10 years and during that time trained hundreds of professionals from all over the world – coaches, business leaders, HR professionals, GPs, psychologists and teachers as well as many independent business consultants, trainers and L&D specialists.I lead the ‘Positive Psychology for Practitioners’ module on the International MSc in Applied PP (iMAPP) programme at Anglia Ruskin University in Cambridge, UK. Students from all sectors come to ARU to learn how to apply the principles and practices of Positive Psychology to increase well-being in their workplaces. I’ve also created Positive Psychology educational materials for schools and university Masters programmes.I’m an accredited StrengthscopeTM Individual and Team trainer and Bounce Back! Well-being & Resilience Programme trainer in schools.My professional background is in Change Management consultancy and Finance, primarily in manufacturing and financial services. I qualified in Finance (FCCA), then completed an MBA (Open) and became a CIPD Associate Member. I’ve always been interested in how organisations work (or don’t) and helping them become more effective. I was one of the first graduates of the University of East London Masters in Applied Positive Psychology programme (2006-2008) which I passed with distinction. Combining my business expertise in change management with my interest in psychological resilience and strengths led to my thesis on the wellbeing of professionals.I have written 6 books, the most recent with a group of like-minded PP professionals including Professor Felicia Huppert and Dr Sue Roffey: Creating the World We Want to Live in: How Positive Psychology can Build a Brighter Future (Routledge, 2021).
