How To Create An Intentionally Joyful Culture

"When the work of your heart, your hands, and your mind is done to serve others with delight, that is joy."  That is the mantra of Rich Sheridan, Co-Founder of Menlo Innovations, a software development company that is known the world over for its intentionally joyful culture.

 

In this episode, your host, Andy Goram talks to the international speaker and best-selling author of Joy Inc., and Chief Joy Officer about what it takes to create an intentionally joyful culture. But don't be fooled by the word joy.  This isn't a lesson in how to be more happy-clappy at work.  Far from it.  This is about working hard, as a team, with a clear sense of purpose and an empowering spirit of experimentation and trust.
