Bettys and Taylors Group UK’s Globally Responsible Practice 4 All

We worked together with Oasis in designing and rolling-out Bettys & Taylors Group’s (BTG) programme of globally responsible practice for all employees. Bettys & Taylors is well-known for its strong socially-responsible, environmental approach. We helped their employees to connect their passions to their work and identify leverage points and strategic projects in their roles that would improve even more BTG’s performance.

We used a participative approach and flat structure, where the Head of Procurement from Head Office could be in the same team as a Baker from the factory, and a Waiter from the shop floor in one of their famous tea houses in Yorkshire. They have learned much more from each other than they expected and the programme was a platform for further action across different arms of the business that would not normally work together.

“An extremely well organised and thought-provoking three days, structured yet free-flowing. I came away feeling inspired and renewed in my way of thinking about business and how we tackle environmental and social issues. My aim is to return to the workplace able to inspire and educate and to become as active as possible in the ‘planet’ vision which is truly taking hold at Bettys & Taylors.”
