Aspire Housing 'Developing a Learning Culture'

Aspire Housing logo

Aspire Housing provides over 12,000 customers with affordable homes across North Staffordshire and South Cheshire. Established in 2002 and now employing over 350 employees, the company is a non-profit making Registered Social Landlord.

Recognising that growth and success would come from developing its workforce capability, the company wished to create and embed a learning culture. We used the Investors in People National Standard as the framework to assess the priority areas for development. By undertaking a diagnostic exercise with the senior management team, an organisational development plan was created.

A number of initiatives were then delivered, including: an internal Coach Development Programme, support on designing an internal Management Development Programme, plus the design and delivery of a Customer Care Programme to all employees.

What the client said

"What I like is Instep’s partnership approach with us, helping us to get started sooner rather than later. You’ve got to know us well, and instead of being pushy, you proactively keep in touch, offer practical ideas and suggestions through friendly discussions."
