Andy Rennison, MD of 3BM, attended the official launch of the Moral DNA Study today, hosted by Field Fisher.
The study was conducted on the Moral DNA of Employee Owned Companies in regards to their ownership, ethics and performance. 3BM were one of the many case studies who took part.
The report details the improved commitment and customer satisfaction and way people behave towards each other in employee owned (EO) companies.
3BM again took part in the Annual Macmillan Coffee Morning today. It was a great opportunity for our staff to come together for a slice of cake and a coffee, whilst raising money for cancer support.
The event raised an impressive £291!

100% of our schools would recommend us!
3BM undertook a client feedback survey in June / July and are delighted that all would recommend us to other schools. More than half of 3BM supported schools completed the survey. We asked them what they thought of the overall quality of the various services and had stunning results. c80% of schools rated the service(s) they have as being excellent, with virtually all others rating us as good.
As a thank you for participation, we offered £50 for the most useful feedback, with the winner being: Lady Margaret School, LBHF.
We will not be sitting on our laurels of course! We continue to develop our offer further and are striving to provide a greater portfolio of services as we build the Mutual. This year we have expanded from c50 to 75 staff to ensure we can be the best.
A huge thank you to the continuing support from our schools!
3BM are admirers of Kinetic Coaching’s work with young people, which they do through partnerships with schools. Their drive as an organisation is to expand their offer to support many more sports to help improve children’s experiences.
Last week, the football team competed in the finals of an international event in Sweden, achieving great success and only succumbing at the final stages to Japan (after beating the host team, France and Brazil). We are very proud of the boys and their efforts. Aaron one of their current year 10 players is modelling their new kit.
Friday 3rd July is the third Employee Owners Day and to mark this important day in the employee owned world, 3BM’s Managing Director, Andy Rennison, attended the launch of the preliminary findings of an interim research paper, published by the Chartered Management Institute (CMI) and MoralDNA™. The report details that Employee owned firms are leading the way when it comes to ethics and management culture, with more democratic management cultures, high levels of employee motivation and a longer-term approach to business decisions. Supported by eaga Trust and Fieldfisher, the report was discussed at a roundtable event on employee ownership, better performance and good management and how they interact, hosted by Graeme Nuttall, OBE.
The 3rd July, 2015 will see the third Employee Ownership Day celebrated by members of the Employee Ownership Association (EOA).
Representatives from 3BM, along with a number of other members will take part in roundtable discussions on employee ownership, better performance, and good management.
3BM have sponsored one of their chosen charities, The Kinetic Foundation, for a consecutive third year.
The donation of £2,000.00 will contribute and fund sponsorship for the Kinetic Academy as they represent the UK in the Gothia World Youth Cup, Gothenburg, Sweden in July 2015.
The contribution will also help support young people through their FA coaching qualifications in May 2015 and enhance opportunities for these young people into employment in their community.

In March 2015, the highly acclaimed artist Stephen Wiltshire was commissioned by Head Teacher, Jude Ragan OBE, Queensmill School, to draw their new building.
Stephen Wiltshire is an artist who draws and paints detailed cityscapes and was awarded an MBE for services to the art world in 2006. Aged three, he was diagnosed as autistic and from the age of five attended Queensmill School on its previous site, where it was noticed that the only pastime he enjoyed was drawing.
Queensmill school provides outstanding provision for children and young people with autism, as rated by Ofsted in October 2014.
The school was designed by 3BM’s Lead Architect Nick Rogers, ARB,RIBA. 3BM were appointed to design and project manage the delivery of the new purpose-built specialist autistic school and respite centre, from inception through to completion.
Stephen presented the original drawing to Jude, where it hangs with pride of place in the reception.
Public Service Mutual of the Year Award is endorsed by the Cabinet Office, and is to celebrate the most impressive groups of employees to have ‘spun out’ of the public sector into an employee-led mutual organisation, and who are showing progress in transforming the service to improve outcomes for their users. We are delighted to have been awarded Highly Commended in this key category.
The Philip Baxendale Awards are the UK’s only dedicated celebration of excellence in employee ownership and are now in their eighth year. Named after Philip Baxendale, a pioneer for the employee-owned movement, the awards provide a platform for celebrating what is increasingly recognised as a better way of doing business. The seven award categories cover the positive outcomes often seen in mutual ownership including employee engagement, innovation and productivity, and are relevant to organisations in the private sector, and those which have “spun out” of the public sector.
3BM have been short-listed (again), in the Public Service Mutual of the Year Award. This award, endorsed by the Cabinet Office, is to celebrate the most impressive group of employees to have spun out of the public sector into an employee-led mutual organisation, and who are showing progress in transforming the service to improve outcomes for their users.
