We're thrilled to announce that Articulate Marketing has achieved the prestigious Investors in People (IIP) Gold accreditation. Only around 30 percent of IIP members achieved this status this year.
This follows four years of continuous improvement with IIP, having in previous years earned Silver status, as well as the coveted 'Small Employer of the Year' award (2022).
Our achievement reflects an ongoing commitment to fostering a really lovely, human-centred workplace culture that empowers and values each and every good egg in the business.
But what makes this accomplishment truly special? Let's delve into the details.
Exceeding expectations across the board
The Investors in People assessment process is rigorous, evaluating companies across nine key areas crucial for employee development and engagement. We're proud to say that Articulate Marketing not only achieved the Advanced Standard on all nine indicators but also surpassed both the national Investors in People average and industry benchmarks.
Our exceptional score highlights our dedication to creating an environment where our team feels empowered. In fact, during the assessment, our assessor (with over 30 years of experience) was particularly impressed by the fact that 100 percent of our staff feel appreciated. This is a testament to the positive and supportive culture we've cultivated here at Articulate.
Building a welcoming workplace
IIP Gold accreditation isn't the only indicator of our commitment to our people.
We've also been recognised for our exceptional onboarding process, consistently receiving praise from new starters who describe it as the “best they've ever experienced.”
These elements, combined with our inclusive policies, strong values and attractive benefits contribute to the overall satisfaction and well-being of our team, where time at Articulate is time well spent (see our employer-employee charter for details).
Our journey continues
Achieving ‘We Invest in People’ Gold is a significant milestone, but it's just one step on our ongoing journey. We're constantly striving to improve and provide our team with the best possible experience, driven by the impact we can make not just on the success of our business but also on the lives of the incredible people who make Articulate what it is.
This recognition motivates us to keep pushing boundaries and maintain our commitment to sustainable growth. We look forward to working with like-minded clients and partners who share our values as we continue to navigate this exciting path.
