How It Works

We use our We invest in people framework to understand how you lead, support and develop your people at work.

Making work better has been our purpose for more than 30 years, helping over 50,000 organisations and 11 million people across the globe.

Your Assessment

An assessment might sound daunting, but it isn’t. It’s a chance for you to understand your organisation from an unbiased and independent assessment of your people strategy, practices and outcomes. 

Everybody in your organisation will have a chance to share their thoughts, feelings and opinions.

Your Report

At the end of the assessment, we’ll take all of our findings and turn them into a report which sums up and provides recommendations to help you improve. You’ll also find out what level you’ve achieved: Standard, Silver, Gold or Platinum.

Making Improvements

Becoming accredited is an achievement to celebrate! But it’s not the end of the journey. Your accreditation lasts for three years, and we’ll help you create an action plan for what changes your company is going to make over that time. Your practitioner will check in with you at 12 and 24 months to see how you’re getting on.

3. Empowering and involving people. There’s a culture of trust and responsibility in the company. Each person feels ownership over their role, and empowered to make decisions.

4. Managing Performance. Leaders and people alike set the right objectives, track their progress and act on other people’s feedback.

5. Rewarding and recognising high performance. The company rewards people when they do well. People feel motivated to always do their best work.

6. Structuring work. Each role is designed in a way that works towards the company’s objectives, is rewarding and encourages collaboration.

7. Building capability. Leaders develop their people and make sure they’re given everything they need to thrive at work. And the company hires the right people, at the right time, for the right roles.
