With the belief that good businesses ensure their energy is focused on giving exceptional service, Business Excellence Awards seek out and develop talented, free-thinking people with the imagination and initiative to make a difference. They organize themselves to operate in ways that bring together the best team to do the job in hand and the one needed tomorrow. Their systems work to support their people, not the other way around.
They encourage involvement at all levels of the business so that clients and customers are impressed at the commitment regardless of which employee answers the ‘phone or opens the door to them. Great businesses go further, they look to provide the products and services others want to buy in a sustainable way. They use profit not just to pay themselves and employ their staff but to invest in the future. They try to change the world, albeit in a small way. It is this level of achievement that these awards set out to acknowledge and reward.
“We’re delighted by the success of the evening,” comments Julie Gingell, Co-Chair of the Business Excellence Awards. “The standard of entrants was extremely high this year, which caused quite a headache for our panel of judges when it came to choosing finalists and winners.”
