Meet the Trainer’s
J
ules Rickman-Jenkins – Hapiflow

For more than 20 years, Jules has been shaping performance content marketing, so her move into AI never felt like a pivot. It was more like the obvious next chapter. From the moment she stepped into the space, she was hooked, helping clients understand what AI can genuinely do, training teams, and building automation and agents that actually make businesses easier to run.

What she does best is remove the busywork, automate the parts that steal time, and free people up to focus on the work that adds real value.

When Jules is involved, teams stop firefighting and start thriving. They have space to be creative, to solve problems properly, and to scale without burning themselves out.

That is the flow she builds, where AI is not just clever, it is genuinely useful. Where businesses save time, teams enjoy their jobs, and good results do not come with unnecessary chaos.

With Jules, businesses do not just improve their systems, they reimagine how they work, turning clunky processes into smooth hapiflows.

Adam Thacker – Hapiflow

Adam has spent most of his career quietly wondering why smart businesses insist on making life harder than it needs to be. You will have seen the same things he has: endless spreadsheets fighting for attention, a filing system only Colin from Accounts can navigate, or processes so tangled they would leave the Minotaur asking for directions.

What Adam does best is spot those absurdities, untangle them, and prove that working smarter does not require panic, pain, or expensive software nobody actually wanted.

He has worked with giants like Aviva, Verisk, and Ardonagh, alongside ambitious local firms across Norfolk and beyond. No matter the industry, the pattern is the same. Happier people, simpler processes, and sensible use of data always beat chaos and crossed fingers.

That is hapiflow. Less friction, more focus, and a workplace where problems are solved instead of passed around. When businesses run well, people thrive. And when people thrive, even business itself becomes enjoyable.
