Chade-Meng Tan (Mandarin: ??? ), known informally as Meng , is a former device designer software and previous motivators on Google that are known primarily for greeting celebrities who visit the Google campus. Meng is also an international bestselling author, thought leader and philanthropist. He retired from Google as a Jolly Good Fellow at the age of 45. He is the Chair of the Search Yourself Leadership Institute and Co-chair of One Billion Acts of Peace, which has been nominated eight times for the Nobel Peace Prize. He is also Assistant Professor at the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy at the National University of Singapore.
He is a Google employee number 107 and his position is Jolly Good Fellow . He joined Google in 2000 after working for five years at Kent Ridge Digital Laboratories in Singapore. At Google, although he worked for eight years in Engineering on projects such as leading mobile search and search quality, he earned his eccentric Google title after starting his company's "awareness training" course - an awareness-based emotional awareness program called Search Inside Yourself, which is featured on the front page of the Sunday Business section of the New York Times. Search Inside Yourself is also the title of Meng New York Times best-seller book that has been supported by world leaders such as President Carter from the United States, business leaders such as Eric Schmidt of Google and John Mackey of Whole Foods Markets, and spiritual leaders such as Dalai Lama. Meng hopes Search Inside Yourself will eventually contribute to world peace in a meaningful way.
Motivated by his belief that happiness is a state of mind, this mindfulness training course is intended to help Googlers find inner peace and clear their minds to manage stress and negativity. The classes proved very successful on Google, which led Meng to write a bestseller entitled "Search within Yourself." This success (outside of his technical role) makes him work for two years as Head of Personal Growth and pursues a full-time non-profit called "Search within Yourself" (SIYLY, pronounced "ridiculous"), to bring the same popular Google class to people other.
Meng has left Google on October 30, 2015 to focus on spreading his message and courses on happiness, meditation, and spreading world peace, as announced on his personal blog.
Meng is a public figure. He began collecting celebrity photographs when Jimmy Carter and Al Gore visited the Google campus. It became a tradition and he now has a large collection of photographs of his meetings with celebrities on Google.
Meng is still Chairman of the Search Council within the Yourself Leadership Institute, and is part of a team of non-profit organizations, One Billion Peace Stories that have been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize in 2015. Nominations are signed by 6 Nobel Laureates.
