StreetGames CEO, Mark Lawrie OBE, introduces our People Plan: our commitment to developing and helping to grow our people, enabling us to achieve our mission.
At StreetGames, we recognise and celebrate our people as our most vital resource. Each and every one of our staff, contractors and trustees, whatever their role, plays a vital part in achieving our mission of transforming the lives of young people living in low-income, underserved communities through sport and physical activity. As a collective and as individuals, we are the people beside the people who change lives and communities – a mantra I refer to frequently and with immense pride.
We understand that to reach our goals as an organisation, it’s crucial that each of our people feels a strong sense of belonging, is truly valued, and has the tools and support needed for both personal and professional growth. In consultation with colleagues across the organisation, we have developed this People Plan to set out our commitment to understand and look after our people, helping us to grow a diverse team that loves what they do and are motivated and equipped to meet the changing needs of the people and communities that we work with.
I am proud to know that people enjoy working at StreetGames. The People Plan includes the results of surveys that highlight this, but I also see it personally on a daily basis in the way that our team lives by our values: by being people-centred, passionate, positive, pragmatic and courageous. We also know, however, that there is always more that can be done. We will not be complacent.
I am excited to share our Plan and look forward to working alongside each of our people as we bring it to life and continue to create lasting, positive change.
