Creating a shared purpose and enabling people development, voice and wellbeing
As people professionals we value what people bring to organisations, and an integral part of our role is to bring the people perspective to business decisions.
We put people at the centre of our approach – balancing consideration, compassion and fairness, and supporting others to do the same. We also have a key role in building a sense of shared purpose, and to give people a meaningful voice on matters that affect their working lives.
As we advise and coach managers and leaders – and enable them to build their own people management capability – we’ll work to encourage a culture of trust, people development and wellbeing, to enable everyone to be their best at work.
Each standard progresses through four levels of impact. Which level do you most embody in your day-to-day work?
