Celebrating North Worcestershire Calendar Winners

  • Please state your name, company name and nature of your business.
    Nicola Roke, Danton HR Ltd – HR Consultancy.
    We help businesses attract, develop and retain the best people for their business.
  • How long have you operated your business and how many people do you employ?
    We have a blend of direct employees and several associate relationships with professionals in the local area and wider area.  The company was established in 2015 and rebranded to Danton HR in 2015.
  • What prompted you to locate your business in North Worcestershire?
    We are local! 
  • What do you enjoy most about your work?
    We are all so passionate about helping businesses grow and giving them the support to succeed.  Businesses are people!
  • What have been your professional highlights so far?
    It’s actually the simple things – receiving a glowing recommendation from a client gives us a real kick, being told that we made a difference to a line manager’s and employee’s experience of a really difficult situation, seeing a manager grow in confidence and do an incredible job of leading their teams.  At the same time, watching our own business develop and grow in line with our vision.  We’re all excited for the future!
  • How do you connect with your business community eg member of business groups, networking, professional associations etc?
    We are members of NWBL, FSB, Worcester 1000, CIPD and CMI.
  • What would you say to other business leaders thinking of relocating to North Worcestershire?
    It’s a no brainer! There’s a wealth of support, knowledge, information and resources available to new and established businesses along with a thriving business community.  There’s enormous investment in the local area and really is no better place to do business!
  • Have you used the photographs taken for you as part of the Celebrating North Worcestershire competition for any of your own marketing?
    Yes, we’ve used the photographs on our own website and in our brochures.
  • Let us have any information that would enhance your case study and be of interest to other business leaders.
    We have just launched a second business – The Business Learning Academy to help businesses gain the skills, knowledge and experience, through their people, to give them the competitive edge and develop their people. Employers are experiencing unprecedented challenges with attracting and retaining great people. The next phase of our growth plans is Danton Health and Safety, due to launch in October of this year.

    Through Danton HR, Danton Resourcing, Danton Health and Safety and The Business Learning Academy, we are thrilled to be able to offer local businesses everything needed through the full employment lifecycle to attract, develop and retain the very best.

Title: How Can You Look at Your Business Problems in a New Way?

1 April 2021

Much as we would all like life after the Coronavirus pandemic to go back to the previous normal, a return to the old “business-as-usual” (BAU) is unlikely. In addition, the world continues to face the possibilities of social (including health), economic and environmental (including climate change) challenges.

The transformation of any business from BAU to sustainable success requires leaders and managers to look at their whole situation anew, continually refreshing their whole body of knowledge and the way they operate.

What is required is a new way to look at your and its whole situation. A Model of Sustainable Organisation (MoSO) provides that new way to view and understand an organisation’s whole situation.

This is not just any model of organisation, this is, MoSO!

To be clear, MoSO is not THE answer. Simply put, its aim, by presenting a bigger picture of organisation, is to generate broader thinking and learning to work towards sustainable success socially, economically and environmentally.

It helps an organisation continually challenge and work to better understand itself in its whole situation so that takes more effective action. MoSO can be applied at any level within a business or any organisation.

Literally look at MoSO from two points of view. Firstly, as an aid to focusing on ever-better delivery of value to customers within a wider world. Secondly, as the key to a body of modern management knowledge.

As a coach I use MoSO as a part of helping leaders and managers work out ways forward when faced with problems, mistakes and failures. MoSO’s role is to prompt questions such as: what IS happening, why is it important, why are we here and where are we going?

Be a voice for Worcestershire

24 February 2021

At the Chamber, we are constantly looking at the ways we can get vital feedback from businesses and as you might know one of the key ways we collect data is through the British Chamber of Commerce Quarterly Economic Survey. The benefit of this survey is that the data is collected nationally and it is the largest business survey in the UK and as such used by the Government, Treasury and the Bank of England as part of its forecasting data. The great news is though, that we can also see and use the local data, and plot trends going back over 30 years.

A chance to star in the Celebrating North Worcestershire calendar

16 February 2021

North Worcestershire based companies are invited to enter a competition to win a fantastic package of free PR support that lasts a year thanks to NWedR and North Worcestershire Business Leaders (NWBL).

Now in its fourth year, The ‘Celebrating North Worcestershire’ PR competition offers the chance to win a valuable prize which will go to 12 lucky winners. The prize includes a spotlight month in the wonderful Celebrating North Worcestershire Calendar 2022 with a dedicated company photoshoot, feature in the NWedR newsletter, social media PR campaign, an online feature in Business and Innovation magazine and your company photograph highlighted for a year on the NWedR and NWBL website photo galleries. 

Jane Doyle, Communications and Engagement Officer for NWedR which is a shared service for Bromsgrove District Council, Redditch Borough Council and Wyre Forest District Council said:

“This competition is now established on our annual calendar. We love the fact that the featured photographs in the calendar say so much about the company they represent. We have again joined with NWBL to organise this competition to highlight what a natural place North Worcestershire is to do business.”

Melanie Hawkett founder of NWBL said:

“We’re pleased that local businesses look forward to the annual calendar and they always get into the spirit of creatively photographing what they are about. It’s good to know that as people work from home and are more separated from their workplaces physically, there is a little taste of their workplace spirit hanging on their wall in the form of the Celebrating North Worcestershire calendar.”

The competition is open for entries until Tuesday 4 May 2021. Entering the ‘Celebrating North Worcestershire’ competition is quick and easy.  Businesses across North Worcestershire are asked to submit up to 50 words on why they think the area is an exciting and inspiring place for their business.  Email your entry to communications@nwedr.org.uk or enter online following the link https://www.nwedr.org.uk/celebrating/celebrating-north-worcestershire-calendar/get-involved/

What our members say

"Hogarths Stone Manor is so proud to host NWBL events, the energy from being part of such an amazing group means that it is always a pleasure to host their events small or large!

This has helped me learn and grown in areas I didn’t event consider. It has allowed me to get involved with some great "
