The company has implemented a 'mindfulness' program, run by a Buddhist Monk who has visits their head office and has spent time at their London and Dublin offices. They intend to roll this out across the Group and to provide follow up sessions in all locations. The sessions provide an introduction to the management of day to day challenges through mindfulness techniques.

As part of their 'Working Together at Bedell' project the company really wanted to encourage positive team work amongst employees. They therefore joined forces with a consulting organisation who offered Strength Deployment Inventory (SDI). SDI is a self-assessment tool that helps people understand what gives them a sense of self-worth and what's important to them when relating to others. It provides a snapshot of who we are, promotes common sense concepts in a visual manner, demonstrates the unique way we each value and prioritise different strengths and how we take different approaches and interpret the actions of others. Each employee completed the questionnaire, and team workshops were organised to analyse the results and talk through what the SDI was all about. All of these workshops have now been completed and the response and feedback has been extremely positive. Throughout the process of SDI it has really helped employees to connect, really talking and listening to each other, thus working together as a team.
