- Tim managed the role very well. Given he was not familiar with the PSP initially, his understanding and appreciation of his audience developed significantly over the two days.
National Employment Services Association - DMC Outsourcing were delighted with the presentations and work sessions presented by Dr. Tim Sharp of The Happiness Institute. The sessions were informative, engaging and delivered everyone personal
insights into how they can manage themselves to create a sense of well being and achievement.
From an organisational perspective, we have developed expertise based on personal strengths, and have adopted strategies from The Happiness Institute's CHOOSE model to play to personal and
organisational strengths, work on internal and external relationships, improve clarity, be optimistic and enjoy the moment. The sessions provided a great foundation for improving how we operate as a business, and I really appreciate the enthusiasm Tim has engendered in DMC.
DMC Outsourcing - Our organisation recently went though a series of significant changes. Leading up to the transition, we were looking to create a springboard from which our people could thrive in the new environment - to reignite the spark that existed before changes were announced. One of our strategies was to enlist the help of Dr. Tim Sharp from the Happiness Institute to assist us in designing programs to keep staff engaged in the business. Tim understood our needs and the content of the workshops was perfect for the outcome we were looking for. The feedback from staff was extremely positive with many staff expressing their gratitude that the organisation had anticipated and provided for their needs in such a considered way. I have no hesitation in recommending Dr Tim Sharp and the Happiness Institute.

Alumni from the Australian Graduate School of Management. Tim established his credentials with the audience very early in the presentation, which helped open their minds to his message. He was both entertaining and informing. The group of mainly MBA postgraduates

"Well-organised, friendly and helpful. I can't really pick any improvements in service, as I found that I always got a prompt response to any of my questions, I got updates on the status of our booking and they were generally very impressive and professional. Perfect when organising a busy event that involves coordinating a raft of stakeholders - Sam made my life a hell of a lot easier!"
