About Us

Benny Button was founded in 2016 when Troy Mansell and Dr Adrian Medhurst had a chance encounter in a laneway cafe in Melbourne. Though coming from different professional and academic backgrounds there was an immediate alignment when it came to wellbeing data and the future of work.

Fast forward 5 years and our team has grown to include world class experts that are focused on the cutting edge of workplace wellbeing and performance trends.

The team at Benny Button have provided data driven wellbeing learning and development experiences to thousands of participants across Australia and Asia. We are proud to have supported many companies with informed strategic decision making, empowering these businesses to cultivate and sustain a high-performance culture. On top of this we have designed and developed two tech products - Profiler and Checkpoint, helping people monitor and prioritise wellbeing and performance in both work and life.

Benny Button's mission is to help people Live Well and Have Impact!
