Episode 54: Creating Moments of Joy at Work

How often do you create moments of joy at work? You might think this a strange question, after all, could anyone create moments of joy at work? There are times when we manage to immerse ourselves in great work, where we lose track of time, are absorbed in such pleasure, but these moments tend to happen by accident rather than by design. What would work look like if we were to design these moments into our working day? This is the topic of this week's podcast with Amrit Sandhar

About your host

Amrit Sandhar

And Evolve Ltd (formerly known as The Engagement Coach) was founded by Amrit Sandhar, who has worked with many well-known brands across the UK, to improve employee engagement/ experience, and ultimately to improve organisational productivity. With a particular passion for neuroscience and psychology to drive behavioural change, combined with his own operational experience and knowledge of employee engagement, he uses a data-driven, practical approach to identify the issues organisations are struggling with, and to work with them to create solutions leading to drive sustainable change, thereby improving productivity. Amrit has a passion for developing people, as he believes highly engaged leaders drive better business performance by getting the best out of their colleagues.

Amrit originally started a career in healthcare as a qualified Pharmacist, and after spending several years in Operations, he went on to oversee half of the UK’s Pharmacy and Optical units for Walmart’s UK business, Asda. Having successfully worked in the healthcare sector, Amrit went on to head up Employee Engagement for Asda, before taking up a role with the prestigious Best Companies (the name behind The Sunday Times Best Companies list), working at boardroom level, helping organisations improve their employee engagement. Amrit is an ILM Level 7 qualified executive coach, a Walmart accredited change trainer, and has a CIPD Advanced Diploma (Level 7) in HRM/HRD.

Amrit was a Finalist in the 2024 Allica Bank Great British Entrepreneur Awards ‘Entrepreneur of the Year’ (Service Industries - Midlands) and for the 2019 NatWest Great British Entrepreneur Awards for ‘Entrepreneur of the Year’ (Service Industries - Midlands). &Evolve recently won the bronze award for our management training programme for Chester Zoo in the BIAZA (British & Irish Association of Zoos and Aquariums) Awards.
