Mel Neil

Leading Expert in the Practical Application of Human Flourishing

‘A Flourishing Workplace’

For over 15 years, founder and CEO of Mind Insurance, Mel Neil has facilitated education and application opportunities for individuals and corporations to apply change and realise their full potential.

In her extensive career, she has educated many thousands of individuals in Applied Emotional Intelligence, focusing on presenting the empirical science and current research to lead others to an understanding and application of human flourishing. Mel’s unique approach is driven by a desire to empower people of all backgrounds to make a life-long change that is relevant and sustainable.

Knowing that everyone has the right to flourish, she tailors packages and courses by carefully considering people’s unique needs and interests. This allows workshop and course participants to experience long-term success, through gaining a thorough understanding of the science of their emotions and human flourishing.

The success of Mel’s programs is evident in developing a true understanding and maintaining psychological wellbeing in her participants. Rather than focusing on products, participants learn the science and access relevant tools to effectively utilise the research for their own needs.

Mel sees her role as holding a space where she can teach the science in a practical way to those who can use it to improve the areas of their life that they wish to change. Whether through the award-winning Melbourne Tourism Leadership Program, the Happiness Lab, the Academy, or a program created just for you, learning from Mel will change your life and the lives of those around you.
