Unlock the secrets to a happier, more cohesive work environment with Antoni Tzavelas, keynote speaker and Chief Happiness Officer at Smiling Bowtie. We kick things off with Antoni sharing his love for Toronto's vibrant coffee culture, and then he dives into his revolutionary Happiness Blueprint through the IMPACT model—Inspiration, Mindset, Power (empowerment), Alliance (relationships), Care (psychological safety), and Transformation. Antoni's personal story from his time as a DevOps engineer vividly illustrates how this model can foster growth and cultivate a supportive and motivating environment. By committing to continuous upskilling and inspiring his peers, Antoni created a blueprint that transformed not only individual careers but entire team dynamics.

In our second segment, Antoni takes us on a journey through the origins of his Happiness Blueprint, drawing inspiration from positive psychology and the lifestyles of centenarians in blue zones. He underscores the vital role of workplace happiness in driving engagement, fulfillment, and productivity, while also addressing common skepticism among leaders. Antoni shares practical strategies for re-engaging disengaged employees and discusses the shift from classical project management to Agile methodologies. To wrap up, we delve into the essentials of Agile practices, where Antoni offers invaluable tips and insights for both newcomers and seasoned practitioners.
