Happiness is a choice. Gallup research in 2013 showed that in the USA, $550 billion worth of productivity was lost due to unhappiness and poor wellbeing at work and the cost has increased every year since. People want contentment, love, and happiness derived from meaningful work. They want healthy personal relationships, a healthy mind and body, a spiritual core, and a reason for living. But with only 24 hours in a day and the competing demands of modern life, how can you achieve all of this?
The author of The Happiness Choice, speaker Marilyn Tam shares what she learned from being an unwanted, neglected, and abused child in Hong Kong to becoming an international business success and humanitarian who is happy, healthy, and at peace with herself. In this presentation, you will learn the principles, tools, and philosophies Tam and others have used to achieve a productive, healthy, and joyful life. You’ll learn what will help power your organization, employees and yourself to greater creativity, productivity and happiness. Marilyn’s book, “The Happiness Choice”, was the top 3 most read book by businesses and won the Silver Medal of the Global eBook Awards.
McKinsey & Company’s survey showed that better financial returns, recruitment, retention, customer relations and business decisions are the benefits of a more gender balanced organization.

You will learn the elements needed to attain success and happiness as a woman in business, and how to support and foster the development of women in business.
