After working closely with Investors in People for a good few years now, we truly appreciate the insights and guidance given in order to enhance and develop our employee proposition. Our values are of the highest importance to us and working closely with our Investors in people assessor has enabled us to identify areas of improvement and how we can continue to sharpen our focus to keep moving forward in a progressive manner.
Entering the awards allowed us to showcase our efforts and demonstrate clearly how our plans have resulted in a positive change in our approach to Leadership and Management. Being able to analyse our current position in our leadership structure, and identify what was working and what needed to change gave us the information we needed to design and implement a new structure that would support the business strategy, making it future proof and sustainable. This has resulted in a new leadership structure, an Executive Committee and an Operational Leadership team; ensuring the business can be fully supported. This has resulted in a true collaboration in the cohort, each working together to achieve the best results for the organisation.
The confirmation of being shortlisted was the best feeling in the world! On a personal level, its the cherry on the cake of 12 months of careful planning and organisation in order to improve the leadership structure and implement the plans to do so. This success is down to the people, who all each play an important part, we don’t take this for granted and we recognise without their support, the success wouldn’t be possible. Being recognised by Investors in People for our efforts has been a huge honour and we are very proud. Our people are dedicated, work hard and deserve praise for their efforts.
Our people are very loyal and supportive of the organisation, and they will be delighted that the efforts have been recognised by Investors in people through the shortlist of this award.
To win the award would be a boost for our organisation and recognition that we continue to look for ways to improve the way we operate. Using the Investors in People framework has given us a deep understanding of how we lead, support and develop our people.
This has enabled us to retain our silver accreditation which we are very proud of but also very conscious we must continue to review and adapt our plans so we can aspire to gold status in the next three years. We have the confidence we can do this by continuing to listen to our peoples suggestions but also following up and delivering what we have promised.
For Jersey Water to continue be a part of this community is crucial to the success of our organisation. Understanding what our people need to progress and being able to deliver against expectations will be a key driver of success for the future whilst always looking at how we can enhance working relationship’s at all levels.
Engaging in awards and events gives us access to different industries and viewpoints and allows us to understand what has worked well for others that may also benefit our organisation, and likewise we are always happy to share our successes to.
