The Happiness Project

Nurturing resilient charities built on the foundations of great teamwork and leadership.

What is The Happiness Project?

TMS Global is committed to giving back to our communities and developing future leaders for a sustainable world. The Happiness Project works towards this goal by supporting charities that have limited access to funding and professional development opportunities.

The Happiness Project was founded by Team Management Systems in 2017, with a vision to nurture and sustain resilient charities built on the foundations of great teamwork and leadership. All workshops sponsored through The Happiness Project are delivered either directly by a TMS Global Authorised Distributor, or in partnership with a TMS Global Accredited Practitioner.

What’s on Offer

For Accredited Practitioners

Each year, TMS Global offers a no-strings-attached donation of up to 10 profiles per TMS Accredited Practitioner to support charitable work in their community.

TMS Global is proud to have supported the delivery of TMS products and training to over 300 Happiness Project recipients since 2017 in partnership with our accredited practitioner.

For Registered Charities

For groups larger than 10 respondents, TMS Global offers a 20% discount off the wholesale price of all self-rater profiles used in conjunction with The Happiness Project.

All ACNC registered charities can access this discount by seeking pre-approval from the Client Support Team.
