Talk Description

In this talk Neil will be telling the story about the best company he has never worked at, Menlo Innovations. We will explore what it means to put joy at the forefront of a business and how that has translated to over 22,000 visitors touring the company since 2013. It's likely a company you have never heard of before today, but will certainly recognise some of the practices and approaches that have been developed there. This isn't just a talk about the book 'Joy Inc' which is written by the founder of the company, no, it's a love letter to future Neil determined to help foster such a collaborative and joyful culture in companies he will work with.
