EFFICIENCYIT
Receiving the warrant, he says, brought both pride and scrutiny.“ The criteria is quite strict, so you have to be serious about sustainability. It’ s not just a buzzword for the King, he’ s long-championed environmental issues. Although the requirements for being a Royal Warrant holder are rigorous, the responsibility for being the grantee of the company is a huge privilege.”
The recognition, Nick adds, reinforces the company’ s environmental commitments.
“ It’ s encouraged us on our sustainability journey, because sometimes you just need to do a little bit more. We’ re a company called EfficiencyIT. Ultimately, if we didn’ t care about efficiency, then there would be a bit of a mix-up of our brand’ s image and values.
“ It means trust. It means security, it means sensitivity, it means commitment, it means that we do what we say we do. So we put our money where our mouth is when it comes to our sustainability efforts.”
Nick’ s description of walking into a Royal Household site captures the personal dimension.“ Every time I walk into one of the buildings, I just kind of fill up with pride, because I know that what we’ re doing is supporting one of the most famous establishments in the world,” he says.
Company culture and long-term direction EfficiencyIT’ s growth has been based on steady development rather than rigid commercial targets.
“ We don’ t put sales targets on people’ s heads,” Nick says.“ Our only ambition is that our team build relationships, trusted relationships, with our customers, and deliver deep value.”
The company’ s culture is shaped by trust and autonomy.“ Micromanagement is still a thing that I hear people having to suffer with, and I can’ t think of anything worse. How can you trust people? How can you work in an environment where you don’ t trust your staff? You’ ve got to trust them,” he says.
