Fire Up Your Happiness

Mental wellbeing for teams

Wellbeing that lasts beyond the workshop day. Matt’s workshop moves your team up the Happiness Barometer in three hours. Then three-minute check-ins keep them there, and show you how your team is really feeling, without ever naming anyone.

Why team leaders choose it

Bring the team together

Three hours with Matt together, and one shared language for how everyone’s doing: “Where are you on the Barometer?”

Know how they’re feeling

An anonymous picture of the team each week, and what would make next week easier. No more guessing in the huddle.

Know what to do

A suggested technique for your next huddle, and a one-line reply so your team sees something happen.

Why it works for teams

Feel good together. Lead better. Keep your people.

When a whole team goes through it together, the workshop becomes team building. The weekly check-in then tells leaders how the team is really feeling, and what they can do about it.

1

It builds the team

Teams share what lifts them, laugh together, and leave with one shared language: “Where are you on the Barometer?”

2

Leaders see how the team feels

Every week, the team’s anonymous Barometer and their answers to questions like “which niggle would make next week easier?”

3

Leaders know what to do

A suggested technique for the next huddle, a one-line reply so the team sees something happen, and a nudge to time big changes well.

4

Feeling good drives the work

How we feel shapes the quality of our thinking, our resilience, how we deal with stress, and our clarity and energy.

Questions leaders ask

Is it really anonymous?

Yes. Check-in answers are stored with the team and the week only, never with a name, email or exact time. Results only show once the week has closed and 10 or more people have answered. Personal reflections never leave the person’s phone.

How much time does it take staff?

The workshop is three hours. After that, the weekly check-in takes under three minutes, by email or on their phone.

Can it run online?

Yes. Matt runs the workshop live on Zoom, moving everyone through the workbook page by page together.

What will our information governance team need?

We’ll share how the data is stored, who sees what and how long it’s kept, so they can review it before your pilot.

Does it work for shift workers?

The check-in arrives on the day and time the team chooses and stays open all week, so people answer whenever suits their shift.
