We help medium-sized businesses leverage data to make better people decisions.
DATA-DRIVEN DECISIONS
We believe that when it comes to happiness at work, it should be more of a science than an art. We use data to help medium-sized businesses make better decisions in order to improve work culture, drive engagement, and increase retention. We work with HR and business leaders using a combination of internal people data and our own bespoke surveys to clearly identify the root cause of your people issues. Based on this analysis, we provide a clear framework for how to solve the issues, including practical recommendations, implementation of workshops and embedding new learning through coaching.
About Aoife
My name is Aoife O’Brien, the founder of Happier at Work (formerly Empowerment Coaching). I have 20+ years of identifying and solving business problems for global organisations such as Unilever, Mars, Coca-Cola and Kraft-Heinz. As a results-driven and curious professional with an aptitude for solving problems using data, I support HR and business leaders of medium-sized organisations to improve productivity, drive better engagement and reduce attrition.
Having worked in several global companies over the duration of my career, I have witnessed first-hand the impact of poor hires, the frustration of misaligned values, and of not satisfying employees’ needs and managing their expectations. All of this proved as a great learning for me – if you want to get the best out of your employees, you need to put people first and create an environment where they can thrive. This results in a happier workplace and increased productivity, engagement and retention – ultimately impacting on your bottom line.
I have a MSc in Work and Organisational Behaviour from Dublin City University, and am a member of the CIPD.
