What I Learned About Happiness From a Hundred Felons | Joseph Grenny | TEDxOgden

In 2015 a group of long-time felons, drug addicts and former homeless moved into a historic home in downtown Salt Lake City hoping to change their lives for the better. Within months they were running multi-million dollar businesses, proving that there is remarkable hidden potential in even the most broken of us. Bestselling business author Joseph Grenny argues that this isn’t just an inspiring story of change, students of The Other Side Academy offer all of us powerful lessons for finding true happiness. Joseph Grenny is a four-time New York Times bestseller author and co-founder of VitalSmarts, a global leader in training and organizational performance improvement. His lifelong passion has been studying why people do what they do, and how to help them change. His company has worked with over 300 of the Fortune 500 companies and has trained millions around the world. His interest in human change brought him to help start Unitus Labs in 2000. Unitus has since had an impact on over 15 million of the world’s poorest, helping them achieve self-reliance by starting and growing micro businesses. In 2015 Joseph co-founded The Other Side Academy, a two-year, peer run community of long-time felons and drug addicts who help one another become a person they have never met before. Remarkably, students who have been arrested an average of 25 times before coming to The Other Side Academy, soon become part of a completely self-reliant community. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
