The We Lead Well Podcast Dave Keeling - On being happy: creating positivity and wellbeing in the workplace
In this episode of the podcast, I chatted with Lead Happiness Consultant, Dave ‘Billy Elliot’ Keeling. Dave grew up in a pit village in Nottinghamshire and was tap dancing three times a week by the age of ten. Never one to shy away from challenge and risk, he then moved into the world of acting and trained at the prestigious London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art.
Dave has worked extensively in theatre and television. His credits include:
- Downton Abbey,
- Eastenders,
- Coronation Street and
- Blood Brothers in the West End.
Dave also has a background in stand-up comedy and has gigged up and down the country, enjoying laughs, cuddles and salty snacks with anyone who cared to join him.
Dave has been Laughologist since 2008. Highly engaging, dynamic, fast-paced and quick-witted, he has been delivering workshops and programmes for Laughology in education, health and business.
As a facilitator, presenter and trainer, Dave has worked nationally and internationally in business and education for the last 20 years. He specialises in change management, improving teamwork and communication, developing creativity and enhancing wellbeing.
He has worked with:
- Sotheby’s
- Liverpool Victoria,
- BP,
- Regus,
- Hewlett Packard,
- British Aerospace,
- Metropolitan Police,
- Royal Bank of Scotland,
- BNP Parribas.
In education, he has worked with students, parents, NQTs, teachers, SLTs and headteachers, delivering outstanding training on topics as wide-ranging as risk-taking, curiosity, managing change, leadership, thinking skills, memory, P4C and the brain. Dave has also worked on Laughology’s Happy-centred schools programme.
