The Investors in People Standard is based on three key principles:

• Plan - Developing strategies to improve the performance of the organisation.
• Do - Taking action to improve the performance of the organisation.
• Review - Evaluating the impact on the performance of the organisation.

An overview of the standard can be downloaded.

Would this be right for us?
According to IIP UK over 30,000 UK organisations are recognised as Investors in People, covering a wide spectrum of UK industries.

The process of achieving the standard has been used by these companies to make a real change and improve their business through their people.

What is the Standard?
The Investors in People Standard will give you a framework to enable you achieve this.

It doesn't matter what size or type of organisation you are, the Investors in People Standard is there to help you improve the way you work.

You have to meet the same criteria – or 'indicators' – as other organisations, but the Standard recognises that you will meet them in your own way.

Investors in People recognises that organisations use different means to achieve success through their people. It does not prescribe any one method but provides a framework to help you find the most suitable means for achieving success through your people.

Developed in 1990 by a partnership of leading businesses and national organisations, the Standard helps organisations to improve performance and realise objectives through the management and development of their people. It is reviewed and improved every 3 years.

Investors in People provides a flexible framework, which any organisation can adapt for its own requirements. It mirrors the business planning cycle (Plan, Do, and Review), making it clear for organisations to follow and implement in their own planning cycle.
