PM+M team achieves Gold Investors in People status

By PM+M Chartered Accountants

29 Aug 2014

PM+M recently received feedback from its Investors in People assessment and is absolutely delighted to announce that it is being upgraded from silver to gold status.

To achieve gold recognition, businesses not only have to meet the standard 39 evidence requirements but also an additional 126 criteria.

Only around 3% of IIP accredited businesses are awarded this highest accolade and everyone at PM+M is immensely proud that it can now count themselves amongst them.

The assessor noted that the change from the traditional accountancy firm that he first met six years ago was 'amazing'. PM+M is delighted at this recognition of the commitment to development and growth it has made over the past few years and is hugely proud of the achievement.

PM+M believes its success is in part thanks to the focus on culture, which is underpinned by key values of quality, achievement and fun. It is this clearly defined clarity of vision, shared by all of the PM+M people, that enables the company to provide the standard of client service which it does.

The reason PM+M is able to execute the plan effectively is because the whole of the team contributes to setting out their goals and vision. Annual Whole Firm Meetings and regular departmental updates mean the whole team are aware of the direction in which they are heading and are striving to achieve targets that all of the PM+M team has all played a part in identifying.

Along with the vision they set for the firm as a whole, it also encourages the team to set personal objectives., challenging their people to be the best that they can be. PM+M supports and encourages its team throughout their professional qualifications and beyond, offering regular performance reviews alongside an annual personal development plan to ensure that potential does not go unfulfilled. PM+M firmly believes that the happiness and motivation of the team is vital to the success of any organisation and to the quality of service provided to their clients. The importance of creating an upbeat working atmosphere can’t be underestimated.
