The Art of Happiness – The Happiness Advantage

An intimate evening exploring happiness, leadership, purpose, and wisdom inspired by conversations with the Dalai Lama.
What does it truly mean to live a happy and meaningful life in a world shaped by speed, ambition and uncertainty?
Join Gina Azaric, founder of the Happiness Leadership Institute, and Sumeer Walia, PhD, Chitkara University's Center for Happiness, for an intimate conversation inspired by the wisdom of His Holiness the Dalai Lama and modern happiness research.
Having both met the Dalai Lama in Dharamsala, India, in deeply transformative ways, Gina and Sumeer share personal insights on happiness, compassion and inner resilience and why happiness is becoming an essential leadership skill in modern life.
You'll explore:
• What happiness research reveals about a fulfilling life
• The role of compassion and resilience in wellbeing
• Why happiness is emerging as a leadership advantage
• Practical insights for living with greater meaning, peace and purpose
The evening concludes with a guided Tibetan Buddhist meditation.
