Stronger Culture.
More Resilient Educators.
Aligned Leadership.
A structured, research-based framework for K–12 districts.
The Happiness Advantage | Orange Frog Workshop equips school leaders and educators with science-backed tools to improve morale, strengthen resilience, and create visible culture shifts across schools and districts.
Currently scheduling summer leadership retreats and fall professional development dates.
WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT
This is structured professional development grounded in research and built for real-world school environments.
THE RESEARCH FOUNDATION
The Happiness Advantage framework was developed by Shawn Achor, a Harvard-trained researcher and former teacher whose course on positive psychology became Harvard’s most popular class for seven years.
His research on resilience, performance, and well-being has been featured in Harvard Business Review, The New York Times, and in one of the most-viewed TED Talks of all time.
The Orange Frog Workshop translates this research into structured professional development specifically designed for K–12 educators — moving from theory to practical, daily application inside schools.

Once summer begins, most calendars are largely set.
If strengthening morale, resilience, and district culture is a priority heading into the next school year, now is an ideal time to explore fit andavailability.
