INVESTORS IN PEOPLE
The well known Investors in People Standard is a business improvement tool designed to advance an organisation’s performance through its people. Currently in Northern Ireland, some 1,500 organisations are using Investors in People to transform their businesses.
The Investors in People framework is a tried and tested way of improving an organisation’s performance. It works by providing a baseline of good management, which can be expanded on, as and when an organisation needs to strengthen its practice.
Whatever your business issues, there are 3 core principles that Investors in People
helps you focus on:
Plan: Develop strategies to improve performance
Do: Take action to improve performance
Review: Evaluate and improve performance
The beauty of the Investors in People approach is that the framework is outcome-based. It lays out the evidence requirements that tell you what you need to achieve to meet your organisation’s goals, but doesn’t prescribe how to meet them. We recognise that every organisation is different, so the exact way you reach your end goal will depend on what’s best for your organisation. Julie Allen Consulting has helped many organisations transform their businesses. |

MANAGEMENT ANALYSIS AND PLANNING
The MAP programme is specifically designed for small to medium-sized enterprises (10 to 250 employees). An analysis of your business is carried out on-site by a professional business adviser, who will provide you with a report detailing your:
- Management/leadership strengths and weaknesses;
- Areas for development; and
- Management/leadership skills gaps.
Most importantly, you will receive a training and development plan highlighting practical, achievable solutions to any areas that need attention.
Programme benefits
MAP can;
- Help increase business performance and profitability;
- Provide a greater understanding of the management and leadership issues within
your business;
- Highlight areas of concern;
- Recommend constructive, positive solutions; and
- Provide funding towards activities set out in your training and development plan.
The Costs?
The Department for Employment and Learning will meet the cost of the business analysis, (worth £1000) and will provide up to a further £6000 of funding (on a 40% basis), towards development activities arising from the completed training and development plan. From 2 March 2009, for a limited period, the Department will provide financial assistance of up to £6,000 on a 100% basis until 31 March 2011, towards development activities arising from the completed training and development plan.
