About the author

Known as Lord Mark Price, he is a British businessman, public servant, and author whose writing centers on workplace culture, leadership, and wellbeing. He is the founder of WorkL, a platform focused on measuring and improving happiness at work, and his book Work Happier brings those ideas together for a broad audience.

Before focusing on writing and workplace advocacy, he held several high-profile leadership roles. He served as managing director of Waitrose, later became a UK Minister of State for Trade and Investment, and also chaired Business in the Community. That mix of commercial and public experience gives his work a practical, real-world feel.

His books are aimed at readers who want useful ideas rather than theory for its own sake. The result is approachable nonfiction that looks closely at motivation, job satisfaction, and how better leadership can improve everyday working life.
