About The Event

Happy Hour alert: We’re serving up a refreshing dose of positivity to keep our spirits high amidst life’s many twists and turns!

With the continuing impact of economic instability and retrenchments on our professional lives, how can we remain resilient and adopt a positive mindset?

This May, join us for a happy hour with Sha-En Yeo, Founder of Happiness Scientists, as we explore how embracing ✨ positivity ✨ could make a difference in our careers.

In this one-hour virtual fireside chat, let’s discuss:

🟡 Common misconceptions about positivity in the workplace (e.g. toxic positivity, false optimism) and what’s the best approach

🟡 The power of positive pivot; how adopting a positive mindset can turn setbacks into opportunities

🟡 Practical strategies for nurturing our mental wellbeing at work even when the going gets tough

So mark your calendars to join our happy hour on 31 May, 4-5pm. Prepare your questions ahead and don’t forget to bring your beverage of choice—whether it’s a coffee, tea, or your favorite cocktail (TGIF! 😉)

Admission is on-the-house; simply register here. See you there~
