BE HAPPY. WORK HAPPY.  Because Happy People Make Good Things Happen

What if the secret to stronger teams, more engaged members, and a smoother-running organization wasn’t more meetings, more money, or more manpower… but more happiness?

Research is clear: happier people are more creative, up to 28% more productive, miss less work, and are dramatically more likely to stay. In other words—happiness isn’t fluff. It’s strategy. And for leaders, it’s one of the most powerful tools you have.

In this fun, funny, interactive, science-backed keynote, Kim Hodous shows you how small, intentional shifts can transform not only your work environment, but also the way you lead, collaborate, and serve your members. You’ll learn practical, customizable “Habits of Happiness” that can be done in less than 60 seconds and applied immediately—no perfect circumstances required.

Whether you’re looking to elevate your leadership, re-energize your team, or spark more joy and connection across your association, this session will leave you inspired, empowered, and ready to make good things happen—at work and in life.
