It was the worst performing submarine, was never ready for its missions on time and was basically the laughing stock of the US navy. David came in with a plan to improve the results on the submarine and thereby make its crew happier. By accident, he found that he had to do it the other way around: Make the submarine a happy workplace and results would follow. The new plan worked, and the USS Santa Fe became the best performing submarine. In this speech from our\u00a02013 conference, David Marquet explains how he did it and how you can create a happier workplace too.<\/p>\n<h3>Srikumar Rao (2009): The two traps that keep us from being happy<\/h3>\n<p><span class=\"embed-youtube\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/vV_KDF04MZo?version=3&amp;rel=1&amp;fs=1&amp;autohide=2&amp;showsearch=0&amp;showinfo=1&amp;iv_load_policy=1&amp;wmode=transparent\" width=\"474\" height=\"297\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/p>\n<p>One of the highlights of our 2009 conference on happiness at work in Copenhagen was Dr. Srikumar S.

He believes in doing what you can for others, that value doesn\u2019t look like coins and notes and that for every problem there is at least one solution. He also believes in anonymity rather than self promotion and in living by your beliefs, which is why you can\u2019t see his face in the video. In this inspiring speech, he shares his story.
