description: David Niu was burnt out after a decade of charging hard through his career. Struggling to achieve that perfect balance between work and life, David needed to recharge.  Forgoing a beach sunburn or a few rounds of golf, he embarked on a Careercation (career + vacation). David sold all his belongings and bought one-way tickets to New Zealand for himself, his wife and their 10-month-old daughter to travel around the world.  While creating amazing family memories in New Zealand, Australia, Korea, Shanghai, Hong Kong and the U.S., David also interviewed over 30 entrepreneurs whose businesses are collectively worth around $2 billion. During his careercation, he collected more than 200 tips on leadership and how to create a thriving company culture. This ultimately inspired him to start TINYhr, his third and current company. Today, David has started a TINY revolution with hundreds of clients sharing the goal of making their employees happier.
