Company mission
Happl's mission is to transform the people experience in the workplace, through improved benefits, employee engagement and gifting, to make employees happier and more engaged.
Our take
Happl (previously Tahora) is building an employee wellbeing platform reimagining the social experience at work through peer-to-peer communities, improving employee interaction and tackling mental health challenges in the workplace.
Happl's platform enables companies to preventatively support their employees' wellbeing and reduce the reliance on medical treatment, by providing wellbeing resources, creating support networks and organising local and virtual social events.
With remote working increasing in many industries, having a place for employees to connect and share is crucial to maintain engagement and wellbeing. The company's preventative approach and emphasis on a unified experience differentiates them from other businesses in the mental health sphere.

I joined Tahora as a Community Lead, and very quickly started to branch outside of my role. From marketing and design to speaking up in product meetings, I've grown and learnt so much in a short space of time.

We have values that we all follow internally, which are totally open to discussion and refinement. We each nominate someone once a month as our hero of the month, choosing which value they have contributed. This really makes you feel that your work is recognised and makes work a bit more fun. Also, who doesn't love a bit of extra cash?

We're all super passionate about better belonging for employees and have each had our own experiences around the problem and mission that we're solving. This comes across every single day in the work ethic and dedication to solve problems.

Given the nature of our business it comes as no surprise that this is ingrained in the co-founders but it is great to see a company practise what they preach! So important during this time in particular!!

The values and founding principles of the company are extremely clear and shared with everyone. It's clear why they became our values and what they truly mean - implementing them daily and weekly is a big priority. Every week we show recognition and align it to one of our core values!

Everyone at Tahora is very smart and extremely driven. In such a small company that is growing so rapidly and in its early stage means things change all the time and we have to constantly be adapting. Ideas are constantly shared and I feel like I'm learning a lot from those around me.
