Thousands of organisations work with the Investors in People framework because it helps them to improve their business.
The Investors in People framework has three core principles:
Plan: Develop strategies to improve performance.
Do: Take action to improve performance.
Review: Evaluate and improve performance.
The three principles breakdown into ten indicators, as you can see in the wheel diagram below. 'Plan' has four strategies, starting with Business Strategy. There are then four action–focused indicators to help you 'Do' what’s in your plan. And finally 'Review' encourages you to evaluate results and feed them into continuous improvement for the future.
Much of Investors in People's success is down to the versatility of these three core principles. Essentially you can take any business issue and apply our plan, do, review approach to it. It's about getting the strategy right, enhancing employee engagement, improving management effectiveness and evaluating what's working best so you can continuously improve performance.
