We are Gail and Clare. We met some thirty-odd years ago (yes, we really were very young). Having worked in different organisations in a range of HR, Engagement and Learning & Development roles we decided that it was time to work together – to create our own Peopletopia. We've been successful in building and delivering an effective and efficient employee engagement service to many businesses across the UK. See our client case studies for a taste of how we do things >
Our experience tells us that businesses who give the best to their people, always get the best from their people. We are employee engagement experts who know that if you put the effort into engaging your people in the right way, your organisation will reap the benefits – a balanced relationship between employee and employer is the most effective and productive approach in business.
