300 North are pleased to be a formal signatory to The Charter for Employers who are Positive about Mental Health. The Charter is one element of the MINDFUL EMPLOYER® initiative which is aimed at increasing awareness of mental health in the workplace and supporting businesses in recruiting and retaining staff.
One in four of us will experience mental ill health at some point in our lives. The World Health Organization defines positive mental health as “a state of well-being in which every individual realizes his or her own potential, can cope with the normal stresses of life, can work productively and fruitfully, and is able to make a contribution to her or his community”.
After weeks, months and sometimes years of good sales and hard work completing tenders, RFI's and proposals, detailed legal contracts and lots of late nights, you have won the new contract – yipppeee! Its great news for your client, for the business, for the sales teams and for marketing but what happens now? The reality dawns….. now we have to deliver it, we need to deliver what we agreed in the contract, we need to mobilise…..fast.
What makes a successful mobilisation?
Winning a new contract can often be stressful and very time consuming. Beyond the signed contract it is mobilisation that kicks off the life of a new project and makes it easy for everyone to do his or her jobs well. A good mobilisation can make the difference between a successful FM contract and one that is besieged by problems. This is why it is really important to consider having a specialist mobilisation team with the unique skills to create a specific mobilisation plan involving all the stakeholders to deliver a new contract smoothly and successfully.
