The PeopleMAX index is a clear and easy to use management tool that provides you with significant information on your progress to creating a diverse and skilled workforce that is effective in meeting the needs of your customers and local communities.
The PeopleMAX index provides a self-evaluation framework by which you can rate your performance against a set of 22 attributes. Each attribute has four levels of performance that might describe your organisation, from No provision through Base and Medium up to High provision. The index is applicable across all sectors and is independent of company size.
The index comprises two maturity models – /include and /develop – structured into a framework under three themes:
| /include | /develop |
|---|---|
| Linking to your business | |
| Shared leadership | Link to organisational objectives |
| Improving business performance | Communicating with staff |
| Policies & resources | |
| Taking action | |
| Recruitment | New staff |
| Development | On-the-job training |
| Work design | Off-the-job training |
| Customers | |
| Suppliers | |
| Community | |
| Evaluating outcomes | |
| Recruitment | Individual evaluation |
| Development | Evaluation systems |
| Work design | |
| Customers | |
| Suppliers | |
| Community | |
| /include: 15 strands enable you to evaluate and further your progress in creating a diverse and inclusive workplace and the approaches that help you recruit, retain and promote the skills you need to meet the different needs of your customers. | /develop: 7 strands enable you to evaluate and improve your learning and development strategy and actions that you have in place to maximise the contribution of all your people. |
About an hour for an initial review
You only need to review and rate 22 strands to complete the framework. This will provide you with an initial picture of your strengths and weaknesses in creating a diverse and skilled workforce.
If you complete the index with evidence this will take you longer – depending on how much information you provide. Your evidence ensures you have a record of why you rated your organisation on each strand as you did. It also enables us to give you tailored feedback and recommendations for priority actions you can take to improve your performance in creating a diverse and skilled workforce. Talk to us and we can discuss how we can provide an in-depth report so you can keep improving performance.
The PeopleMAX index online tool enables you to rate your performance on each strand of the two maturity models, /include and /develop. We process your responses to provide an overall score, the PeopleMAX index.
We assess your ratings – none, low, medium or high – against the all about talent best practice standards. Using research on the actions and approaches that are successful in creating a diverse and skilled workforce, we apply a weighted scoring system to your ratings to give you a realistic assessment of the overall impact of your policies, practices and actions.
The Dashboard provides instant feedback of your strengths and weaknesses.
