Case Study: TPT Retirement Solutions
Happy hosted a two-day leadership programme for TPT Retirement Solutions.
We helped managers to delegate successfully and create a culture of job ownership, regular 1-to-1s with staff and more. After working with Happy and implementing the ideas from the course, TPT Retirement Solutions were awarded the Investors in People Gold Award.

Happy helped managers to delegate successfully and create a culture of job ownership, so that their teams got the job done from start to finish with minimal involvement and intervention from their manager.
We hosted a one-day workshop for managers, to give them proven techniques and ideas for creating high-performing teams. This included what empowers people to work at their best, job ownership, giving constructive feedback, and how to motivate teams. At the end of the day, everyone produced a personal and team action plan to put their learning into practice.
Our IIP Gold was due to our overall approach, including very significant contributions from Happy. In just two days, they had a really big impact. Our competitive advantage is in customer care, and that depends on engaged employees. We asked our staff what made them engaged. And the biggest factor, more than training and money was the behaviour of their managers. I wanted something very practical. We could do theory. I wanted someone to come in and give us examples of engagement and motivation. I wanted an inspirational approach to delegation and practical ideas for getting people to take responsibility and ownership.Head of Business Resources, TPT Retirement Solutions
The benefits, as measured by the client
- A buddy system has been set up for staff to support each other.
- An unpopular annual appraisal system was replaced with monthly one-to-ones which people really like.
- TPT Retirement Solutions were awarded the Investors In People Gold Award — a very rare achievement, particularly in the financial sector.
- People take more ownership of their jobs, working more independently and self-sufficiently than before.
Excellent use of my time and has improved my ability to delegate.Louise Bancroft
