Happy teams is a new podcast that seeks to teach business owners all about how to grow a thriving, positive workplace culture that boosts efficiency, helps retain your brightest and best talent and improves productivity across the field.
With remote working and mental health now more relevant than ever, creating a workplace culture that allows team members to feel engaged, included and motivated is extremely important. But, for this to work successfully, a number of things need to fall in place and knowing what fits where isn’t always easy. On Happy Teams, we talk to some of the best digital agency and tech company leaders about how they create a workplace culture that delivers.
We know full well that every business is different, so we cover all things from past success and failures, to how to cater your culture to individual personalities and why it is so important that businesses do all they can to make sure their talent is happy and feel at home when working for them.
Each episode, Prodigi’s founders, David and Bachir, will be sharing some of their top tips and interviewing a new business leader. We’ve learned a lot whilst making these podcasts and hope that you will too.

The Human Side of Agency Acquisition: RocketMill & PMG's Success Story on Happy Teams
From our latest agency leadership podcast episode: Digital marketing agencies RocketMill and PMG reveal how their merger strengthened organisational culture and team retention, moving beyond traditional ESG principles and riding the Gartner Hype Cycle of acquisition excitement.
When RocketMill transitioned from an employee-owned trust to joining global agency PMG, they achieved something remarkable, improved employee retention, even after team members received their acquisition payouts.
"We didn't need to do a deal we wanted to, so it wasn't a deal born out of necessity," says Tom. "We were clear with the team that it was about opportunity creation and career enabling, but the notion of career headroom drove the decision."
"For the first six months, I'm not sure we lost anyone." Tom explains. "I think that curiosity played a large part in it. I think an understanding of the shared vision played a large part in it. And I think the fact that genuinely people could see that if you look at the portfolio of clients that PMG have, they represent some of the most iconic brands in the world."
PMG demonstrated their company culture commitment through strategic change management: "The head of people within PMG moved to London for four or five months with her family to be here on the ground with our team, to be with our people so that they understood. To ensure that they were heard, to ensure cultural sensitivity - it was just a very human thing to do."
