2018 – our most international year ever | The Chief Happiness Officer Blog

2018 has been our awesomest year yet, not to mention our most international year ever :) It’s pretty stunning to see the change that a small Danish company has been able to inspire in workplaces all over the world.

Here are some highlights from our 2018 at Woohoo inc – and let us just take this chance to wish you an incredibly happy 2019!

50 countries!!!

In November I spoke to 1,000 government managers and executives at a conference in Ottawa. That was our first ever speech in Canada, and that means that we have now spoken in 50 countries around the world. You can see the whole list here.

Partners in 29 countries

We now have partner companies using our tools and methods in 29 countries!

We could not be prouder of the AMAZING work they are doing all over the world, including:

The first ever conference on Happiness at Work in Lebanon
The first ever conference on Happiness at Work in Hong Kong
The biggest conference on Happiness at Work yet with over 500 participants
Vega IT Sourcing in Serbia did a charity relay race where 83 teams participated on a sunny Sunday morning to help children without parental care.

International survey on good days at work

Together with our partners we conducted an international survey to find out how often people have a good day at work and what makes it a good day. We collected data from 2,500 workers around the world and you can see the results here.

New book: Leading With Happiness

Our latest book Leading With Happiness is getting rave reviews and is currently being translated into Danish and Arabic.

Conference

In May we held our 9th Conference on Happiness at Work and it was truly our best one yet. You can see all the talks here. The audience favorite was Garry Ridge, the CEO of WD-40 Company, who shared how a happy culture has made his company a global success.
