ADDITIONAL BUSINESS IMPROVEMENT MODELS

Investors in People offer three further business improvement models to address key areas facing organisations in terms of the management and development of its people.

Recruitment & Selection

The model helps organisations struggling to identify and attract the right calibre of candidate. It provides a structured framework to help ensure value for money is gained from the recruitment and selection process, and helps reduce staff turnover levels.

It also attempts to address skills shortage and matching difficulties – not only in the short term, but also with a long term perspective, whereby new recruits are capable of growing and developing in line with that of the organisation.

Leadership & Management

The model encourages an organisation to create, manage and invest in good leadership techniques. It is based on best practice from successful organisations, and establishes a structured and strategic approach to leadership and management.

It develops the management skills of existing leaders within an organisation, and helps identify managers of the future – developing effective succession plans to support long–term strategic objectives.

Work–Life Balance

The model has been developed to deal with the rapidly changing demographics and demands of the modern–day working population. Individuals are increasingly seeking a balance between their work commitments and their out–of–work lives, and the Work–Life Balance model provides a flexible environment which can benefit all parties.

It is a basic framework which organisations can then use to tailor a structure which best suits the individual demands of the organisation. Successful application of the model can improve staff retention, productivity, staff morale, and also allows organisations to more successfully service the 24–7 and global demands of their customer base.
