Happiness works: Nic Marks at TEDxWarwick 2014

Nic Marks is the founding director of Happiness Works, a company that focuses on science-based, responsive analytics to unlock new ways to happiness and productivity within the workplace. Marks is also a fellow of the UK think-tank, the new economics foundation (nef) and a board member of Action for Happiness.

He is best known for creating the award winning Happy Planet Index, the first global measure of sustainable wellbeing. His finding, that people in the wealthiest countries who consume an extremely large amount of the world's resources, do not come out on top in terms of well-being, raised questions as to the purpose of economic growth.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
