Organisational Vitality in 2024 – End of year report
Our progress this last 12 months and our ambitions for the future
Our Work
Our ambition to serve only organisations that are genuinely committed to doing their level best to address the environmental and social challenges of our time is beginning to come to fruition. Our client base is now over 50% bcorp or equivalent, many are employee owned or are in the process of becoming one. All clients are genuinely committed to create an ever-better employee experience through rewarding work and a developmental culture. Our goal is to be at 75% in the next 18 months.
Our office, administration and technology
In the last 12 months we have changes supplier for web hosting so that this is carbon neutral, our broadband and mobile phone to more ethical and environmentally conscious suppliers, and moved banking to a provider who is rapidly divesting their interests in fossil fuels. For many years we have benefited from using green energy, Scandinavian levels of insulation and solar thermal water heating. Our aim is to become a net producer of green energy through a solar PV array, we hope to have plans in place for this in the next 24 months.
If we are to achieve our aim of establishing the Organisational Vitality as the “go-to” provider for Organisational Effectiveness for purposeful businesses, we ourselves need to be walking that same path, challenging ourselves to have an ever-better impact on people and planet.
Our Travel
In 2024 we broke our 3 year run of doing as many business miles by bicycle as we have by car. The reasons for this are exceptional and we hope to me back on track in 2025.
Our social investment
Or voluntary work providing mentorship and learning opportunities to socially disadvantaged young people continues, primarily through our work with the Gold Scholarship Programme at the University of Bath. We continue to take a leading role in The Deming Alliance UK and ReinventingWork in Bath
