Investors in People assess how your organisation is performing against our We invest in people framework. We advise and support you on how to improve your workplace culture over time specifically in areas around employee engagement, communication, organisational culture and work practices.
This will enable you to understand your performance at leading, supporting and improving your people & culture strategy, comparing against other organisations in your industry and sector globally.
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, assessing over 59,000 organisations and 14 million people across the globe.
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.
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.
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.
You need an organisation that is trusted to provide you with an accreditation for your organisation against a framework that measures performance.
