For Chief Wellbeing Officers and people leaders

Wellbeing is on your desk.
Give it a real framework.

The Chief Wellbeing Officer programme gives leaders a shared language, a measurement frame and a practice — so wellbeing stops being perks and starts being strategy.

  • World Happiness Academy, an initiative of the Foundation
  • Designed for organisational leaders
  • Ecosystem assessment available free
  • Weekly live sessions in English and Spanish
  • Team enrolment on request

The real problem

Wellbeing without a frame becomes a budget line.

  • Activity is not strategy

    Yoga at lunch and an app licence do not answer what the organisation is actually doing to people.

  • No shared language across functions

    HR, safety, leadership and finance each mean something different by wellbeing, so nothing compounds.

  • Nothing you can put in front of a board

    Without a measurement frame, the work is invisible the moment budgets tighten.

Ce que disent les Happytalistas après avoir parcouru le chemin.

Des mots validés de coachs, de professionnels et de Chief Well-Being Officers ayant participé à nos programmes, Fests et retraites.

  • Before engaging with the World Happiness Foundation, I often treated well-being as something separate from performance. The program helped me see that people do their best work when meaning, trust, and humanity are built into the way we lead. That insight changed both my coaching conversations and the results my clients pursue.

    Executive Coach|United States

  • The Foundation gave me language for something I had felt for years: real transformation begins inside, but it cannot end there. I now help leaders connect personal awareness with the cultures and communities they influence. My work feels deeper, more courageous, and more useful.

    Leadership Coach|Canada

  • I came looking for new coaching tools and found a much larger invitation - to accompany people toward lives of purpose, connection, and contribution. The program expanded my practice while reminding me why I became a coach in the first place.

    Professional Coach|Mexico

  • This experience shifted my attention from fixing isolated problems to creating the conditions in which people can flourish together. I listen differently now, ask braver questions, and help teams turn well-being from an aspiration into a shared way of working.

    Team Coach|Brazil

  • Many clients arrive wanting a new goal, but underneath they are searching for meaning. The Foundation's approach helped me hold both conversations at once. Clients can move forward practically while also reconnecting with who they are and what they want their lives to stand for.

    Career and Purpose Coach|Argentina

  • The program strengthened one of the most important capacities a coach can bring: presence. I learned to create more spacious conversations, trust the wisdom emerging in the room, and support change that feels aligned rather than imposed.

    Transformational Coach|Colombia

Chief Wellbeing Officer

Make wellbeing something you can lead, not something you buy.

A shared language, a measurement frame and a practice for the whole organisation.
