WOHASU®, organizer & producer of the World Happiness Summit®, the Chaplin School of Hospitality and Tourism Management at Florida International University, and Dr. Sandro Formica offer a not-for-credit Certification Program for managers, consultants and business professionals who intend to lead applying scientifically tested happiness and wellbeing practices and tools.
“Forward-thinking companies have understood that happiness is a core competency and, as such, it must be first acquired and mastered at the managerial and executive level. That is why there are about 1,500 Chief Happiness Officers on LinkedIn.”
We are very happy to announce that the WOHASU-FIU Chief Happiness Officer certification program will be offered IN PERSON at the Florida International University North Bay Campus. Join our global cohort and become part of the wellbeing at work movement.
Our CHO program is interactive, fostering opportunities for connection, and takes a deep dive into the competencies needed to lead today’s workforce. We will have several industry guest speakers. Participants will receive a comprehensive Research Guide, Exercise Workbook and additional resources to design the right happiness and wellbeing practices for their organizations, supported by one or more of the four core competencies of a CHO: Positive Self-Leadership; Stress, Engagement and Flow; Building Positive Relationships; and Managing Positive Organizations. You will learn evidence-based practical tools to cultivate positive work culture, and lead through a human-centric approach.
The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the urgency to invest in employee wellbeing.
Positive managers are top performers, both at the individual and organizational level. Research has demonstrated that work practices aligned with personal and collective growth, values and purpose have positive effects on satisfaction and resilience, thus strengthening innovation, participation, trust and retention.
The positive domino effect sparked by positive practices, inevitably fuels job performance and increases firm productivity.
