What Tack TMI does

Tack TMI is a global learning and development provider operating as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Gi Group Holding, the Italy-based multinational staffing group with over €2.6 billion in revenues. The business was formed in 2016 when Gi Group merged two heritage brands: Tack International, founded in 1948 as a sales training house, and TMI (Time Manager International), founded in 1975 in Denmark with a focus on emotional development and culture change. Tack TMI delivers across six practice areas — Sales Excellence, Customer Experience, Leadership & Management Development, Personal Development, Change & Innovation, and Safety Culture — through a blended portfolio spanning in-person workshops, virtual instructor-led training (VILT) on Adobe Connect, and digital self-directed learning via the proprietary Tack TMI Coach Learning Experience Platform. Supporting IP includes the Making Learning Stick (MLS) framework, the YOU Appeal sales methodology, the Putting People First culture change methodology, the Personal EQ Meter assessment, and bite-sized Skill Pills and Simulations content modules.

The company reaches enterprise clients globally through a network of more than 800 consultants, 30+ physical offices, and delivery capability in 55+ countries and 37 languages. Revenue is generated through five streams: direct training programme delivery (professional services fees per programme), content licensing (Skill Pills, Simulations, Videos, Animations on per-user or enterprise basis), train-the-trainer engagements, professional coaching, and customised digital learning development. Go-to-market is primarily direct enterprise field sales via a consultative five-stage '5 I's' process (Investigation, Identification, Implementation, Integration, Impact), supplemented by a Global Partner Network that extends regional reach, inside sales for mid-market, and Global Open Programmes for individual and small-team enrollment. Documented anchor engagements include multi-year programmes with Unilever, Nestlé, Henkel, Audi, Skyscanner, Lumanity, Morgan Advanced Materials, and a 120,000-employee financial institution served across 50 solutions over seven years. Tack TMI has no public funding history, no disclosed revenue, and is privately held, with sustainability supported by the capital base of its Gi Group parent.
