Will Bowen

Will Bowen is the founder of the Complaint Free movement, which has millions of followers worldwide. In 2006, Bowen was the pastor of a midwestern church delivering a series on prosperity. Having noticed the habit many of his congregants had of complaining about trivial matters, he handed out purple rubber bracelets to members of the congregation and asked them to use the bracelets as a tool with the ultimate goal of going 21 days without complaining.

Bowen's idea exploded, and more than 12 million purple Complaint Free bracelets have been distributed to people in over a hundred countries.

Bowen has been featured on Oprah, Dr. Oz, Forbes, NBC’s Today Show, CBS Sunday Morning, ABC World News, and Fox News, as well as in People, Newsweek, The Wall Street Journal, and "Chicken Soup for the Soul."

The late Maya Angelou provided the forward for Bowen's international bestselling book, "A Complaint Free World," which has sold more than 3 million copies in 30 languages and is required reading at many universities and businesses. Angelou was the recipient of the six-millionth Complaint Free bracelet.

Other bestselling books by Bowen include "Happy This Year!," "To You; Love, God: A Year of Daily Guidance and Inspiration Straight from the Source," "Complaint Free Relationships," and "Happy Stories!".

Thousands of companies worldwide, including Volvo and Kimberly-Clark Corporation, have used Bowen’s Complaint Free Business program to increase productivity, improve communication, and raise morale. He travels the world clearing up complaining -- which he calls "ear pollution" -- and motivating businesses and organizations.
