Demonstrates Firm Commitment to Making People the Foundation for Success
LONDON, August 3, 2010 - Alexander Mann Solutions (AMS), the provider of world-class talent and
resourcing functions, has announced that it has secured the prestigious
Investors in People (IiP) Bronze award. The Bronze award places AMS within
the top three percent of organisations to achieve this sought-after
recognition, over and above the IiP Standard - for which AMS first received
accreditation in April 2004.
IiP is a globally recognised framework which sets out how good people
management practices can help achieve business goals. To attain the Bronze
award, AMS had to fulfil 35 extra evidence requirements, in addition to the
37 core indicators required to achieve the IiP Standard.
AMS was awarded the accreditation following a rigorous, independent
assessment. This involved meetings with a cross-section of 70 employees
globally to review AMS's people management practices.
Bill Crabtree, Assessor at IiP says,"Visiting AMS was a real privilege.
It was fascinating to talk to staff in so many different countries and was
impressive to get a sense of the same organisation from each… it was
fascinating to hear how virtual teams work together, even though they are
located in different countries"
"The organisation is full of bright, motivated, articulate and
hardworking people…. Most of the people who work for AMS also appear to be
driven by their own high standards of performance…. From an outsider's
perspective, AMS is a company where people are very engaged with the business
and passionate about what they do."
"AMS really deserves to be congratulated for some of the superb
initiatives that are taking place."
Rosaleen Blair, CEO and founder of AMS added, "Renewal of our IiP
accreditation was a priority for AMS's Leadership Team as it reflects our
continued commitment to being an employer of choice, and making AMS a great
place to work. I'm proud that the Bronze award further recognises the hard
work our fantastic employees put into our internal processes for the
development and management of all our people. It shows our commitment to
making people the foundation of our success and the passion we have for our
business."
