Speaking

There are other presenters who touch on the topics of happiness and positivity, but there is only one Dr. Happy!

Dr. Sharp is a highly acclaimed conference and corporate keynote presenter. He’s spoken to hundreds of thousands of people around Australia and the world. And he’s one of the few professional speakers who has academic credentials and deep professional experience, as well as an incredible ability to engage and entertain!

He’s also a best-selling author and corporate consultant, with a background in academic, clinical and coaching psychology. He’s worked with individuals, teams and organisations at all levels and from all backgrounds and it’s this incredible breadth of experience, along with his own personal successes and achievements, that he shares with his audiences – in an entertaining and humorous way.

When all is said and done, Dr. Sharp is an expert in human behaviour, in what makes people tick; but his focus is mostly on the promotion of positive psychology principles and his passion lies in helping individuals, teams and organisations to really thrive and flourish.

More specifically, Dr. Sharp’s presentations include topics such as:

  • Happiness at work…and beyond
  • Building a positive organisational culture
  • Creating collaborative teams
  • Resilience – thriving through difficult times rather than just surviving
  • Developing optimism
  • Identifying and utilising key strengths
  • Improving performance and productivity through positivity
  • Happiness, health and wellbeing

  • We recently hosted Dr Tim Sharp as a keynote speaker at our annual customer and prospect event in Sydney. The agenda was focussed around technology and the challenges facing senior business leaders in Finance, HR and IT. Dr Sharp put together a fantastic session that spoke to the issues around employee happiness and the impact this had on employee engagement and ultimately business success. The session was incredibly engaging and very relevant to our audience with some great anecdotes and tips for executives to use in their own lives and organisations. The feedback from the attendees was overwhelmingly positive with Tim’s closing keynote being the highlight of the day, one of the attendees even gave him a 10 out of 5 on their feedback form!

  • Tim is one of those rare gems that I've been fortunate enough to call a friend for many years. His entrepreneurial spirit and passion for new ideas is never ending. His clinical knowledge is second to none - just look at the accolades he holds and the events he is invited to present at. His compassionate demeanor always sees him putting others first and truly caring about individuals and humanising the workplace at a very deep level. If you get the chance to connect with him at any level, you'll be highly delighted.

  • For those wanting an insight into happy, I can highly recommend having the preeminent positive psychologist Dr. Tim Sharp (Dr. Happy) present the fundamentals. You’ll learn practical and easy-to-apply methods to a happier existence presented in a fun and casual format that will leave you wanting more!

  • Tim is an outstanding public speaker that gave a great opening keynote to the Psychological Health & Wellbeing in the Workplace Congress. He delivered an inspiring presentation that demystified positive psychology and firmly positioned it within the corporate world.

    Aaron Gay – Managing Director and Intrepid Minds

  • When the history of positive psychology is written in Australia, a large chapter will be devoted to Dr. Tim Sharp. Few have done as much to promote the science of well-being with such panache and humour! He has the gift of taking evidence based science and making it comprehensible and enjoyable.
