Principles in Business: an Oxymoron?

Welcome...
Despite the apparent contradiction in terms between doing well and doing good (in short, employing principles in business), those companies who have chosen to do so have not only survived, but prospered in an increasingly aware global climate.

To achieve this, they have declined to engage in activities which essentially go against core human values. Instead, they have integrated values and purpose into their recruitment programs - a disciplined 'understanding in practice' as a key requirement for each new employee. They have sought to inspire and require each employee to own responsibility and accountability to the common good; and they have determined to consistently and publicly exemplify this lived reality themselves...

They have done many 'practical' things. And they have embraced many seemingly 'soft' concepts in pursuit of the truly exceptional - 'soft' concepts like knowing that if we are to invite others (our employees) to share a central driving passion beyond profit margins; we must make that passion abundantly clear. Like realising that if we want them to be powerfully in sync and actively engaged with that lived reality we have to show them the way. Like accepting as normal an organisation that is fully engaged in increasing productivity and prosperity - in human terms as well as commercial.

They have done it and so can you...as you read this, it is being done by companies across the world, working in partnership with core principles known as The Three Principles. The Three Principles are most powerfully at work where there are people (at every level) who suspect that there is more to business than the bottom line.

If you are inspired to create the exceptional - an organisation that contributes to a more satisfying, rewarding, and ultimately more sustainable world; PiB would like to work with you.

Listen Without Comment. Sound simple? Not so. When was the last time you listened to someone without waiting for them to finish so that you could 'enlighten' them?

THE LEADERSHIP CHECKLIST

For PiB, there is one fundamental premise: that state of mind either supports or negates the effectiveness of any leader - and thus, the culture they engender, for good or ill. How do you think you rate as LEADER?
