DriveWorks, market leaders in Design Automation, Sales Configurator and CPQ software, have recently been awarded a silver Investors in People accreditation.
As part of our performance and growth strategy, we take a proactive approach to people and team development. Having achieved Bronze accreditation in 2014, we recently applied for the 3-year re-assessment against the Investors in People standard and we’ve now achieved Silver accreditation.
Organisations that meet the world-recognised Investors in People Standard reflect the very best in people management excellence. Underpinning the Standard is the Investors in People Framework. Based on 25 years of leading practice, the latest research and workplace trends, the Investors in People Framework is organised around nine key indicators of high performance, each with three underpinning themes.
The 9 key indicators are:
- Leading and Inspiring People
- Living the Organization’s Values
- Empowering and Involving People
- Managing Performance
- Recognizing and Rewarding High Performance
- Structuring Work
- Building Capability
- Delivering Continuous Improvement
- Creating Sustainable Success
To achieve accreditation, organisations are assessed against these themes and indicators. Assessment is carried out using surveys, interviews, meetings and observation. The accreditation awarded represents the current level achieved and the standard can be used to facilitate ongoing development of people management practices.
The assessment included benchmarking the company against all of these standards and DriveWorks exceeded the industry average across all themes.
We are proud of our people, they’re a team of hardworking, brilliant, honest and passionate people who all go the extra mile. We will continue to invest in our people and work together to execute beyond expectation.
