Jenn Lim biography
Happiness speaker Jenn Lim is the bestselling author of Beyond Happiness and CEO and co-founder of Delivering Happiness, a company she led to the Inc. 5000 list as one of the fastest-growing private companies in the U.S. Recognized as a Top 50 global keynote speaker, Jenn is an expert in modern leadership, wellbeing, and building cultures rooted in purpose, people, and sustainable profit.
Long before “corporate culture” became a buzzword, Jenn helped shape it at Zappos, where she created the first Culture Book in 2005—now a global icon of how businesses can scale happiness and profitability hand in hand. Amazon acquired Zappos in 2009 for $1.2 billion, largely thanks to its unique approach to culture—a key factor in the deal’s success. By 2011, Zappos ranked #6 on Fortune’s “100 Best Companies to Work For.”
Jenn also led the launch of Tony Hsieh’s Delivering Happiness (2010), which became a New York Times bestseller, remaining on the list for 27 weeks and translated into multiple languages. Her own book, Beyond Happiness, expands on this work, offering a powerful blueprint for leaders and organizations navigating change with authenticity and impact.
Over her 20+ year career, Jenn has worked with hundreds of companies—from Fortune 500s and governments to startups and universities—on how to build meaningful, connected, and high-performing workplace cultures. Her clients have included organizations like Pixar, Twitter, and UCLA.
Jenn’s work has been featured in Harvard Business Review, Forbes, Inc., and NPR. She also served on the Global Happiness Council for Work & Wellbeing, shaping the global conversation around employee experience and human-centered leadership.
When she’s not traveling the world as a speaker, Jenn Lim interviews culture leaders on the Delivering Happiness podcast. Her mission is both simple and profound: to cultivate more impactful, authentic, and connected workplaces.
