About Nic Marks
Nic Marks, Happiness Researcher and Founder of Happiness Works
Nic’s work in happiness and wellbeing research methodology is world-renowned. His love of using applied statistics to ground wellbeing and happiness in hard evidence has led to worldwide acclaim and the realization that happiness is a serious business.
He is perhaps best known for his trailblazing work on the Happy Planet Index, National Accounts of Well-being and the Five Ways to Well-being which is used extensively within health and education institutions as well as within governmental policy. He is also a fellow the UK think-tank, the New Economics Foundation, where he founded the award winning Centre for Wellbeing, as well as a board member of Action for Happiness.
A ‘statistician with soul’, Nic believes that happiness and contentment are not the result of the accumulation of wealth but rather comes from connecting with others, engaging with the world and gaining a sense of autonomy.Through statistical methods which can be used to measure happiness, Nic analyses and interprets evidence in such a way that it can be applied within business and organisations as well as policy fields including education, healthcare, economics and sustainable development.
