About Richard
Richard helps leaders build happier teams that perform better, stay longer, and collaborate more effectively.
Through keynote talks, company workshops and consulting, he teaches the science-backed habits that lead to high-performing, loyal teams, and a workplace people genuinely want to be part of.
Unlike most workplace speakers, Richard doesn’t just talk about theory. He’s lived it. In 2014, he founded Secret Source, a tech company that made happiness its number one KPI. Over eight years, he led the business through real-world challenges while putting happiness at the core of culture and performance.
The result? Secret Source was an employer of choice, enjoyed employee retention double the industry average and had almost 100% customer retention.
Now Richard shares that experience with organisations around the world, showing them how to turn workplace happiness into a strategic business advantage.

I was absolutely thrilled to host Richard as he spoke at a Vodafone event about happiness at work. He is experienced and knowledgeable in the field and so offers credible insights and advice. Our public conversation, in front of 200 leaders, was very well received and thoroughly enjoyable. Richard is a naturally grounded speaker who communicates well and connects with his audience. I really hope we’re able to chat again in the future and strongly recommend him as one who can offer excellent insight into leading high-performing teams.
