The government initiative, Investors in People, involves a third of all people at work. The first church to achieve the National Investors in People Standard was an urban priority area in Nottingham. The Standard aims to help identify: what is trying to be achieved; the contribution everyone can make; the support and training that is needed; and progress. The report shows how Investors can help the Church to: develop a corporate spirituality which fosters vision, learning and collaboration; translate its mission into achievable tasks; foster connections between the whole and the parts; enable people to identify gifts and skills, and to apply them; and develop a continuing cycle of reflection and learning from experience. The key features of this book include outlining the Investor Standard Theory, giving practical experiences of churches and offering a theological evaluation of the Investor Standard Theory.
