Embracing the philosophy of Investors in People

CAROLE CLARKE

INVESTORS in People is a national standard which is both an award and a philosophy indicating that a business acknowledges its staff as its most valuable asset, and is committed to developing them in line with clearly set out business objectives. There must be adequate systems in place for training and evaluation and a commitment to continual improvement. Whether or not a practice intends to undergo the formal process of assessment, the standard is a valuable one to aim for as it offers a useful framework for practice development and improvement.

Note:

The author is extremely grateful for the support and enthusiasm of everyone in the practice who helped meet the Investors in People standard, and to Anne Rushton (former regional postgraduate veterinary dean, East England) who first introduced her to the scheme.
