Evoluted is now a Certified BCorp! As one of only 6 certified companies in Sheffield, less than 50 in the entirety of Yorkshire & the Humber, and only 2000 in the UK; it’s a prestigious group to be counted amongst with a rigorous and time consuming process to achieve.

But despite the BCorp movement growing to globally pivot business towards becoming a force for good, thousands of businesses and their customers are still unaware of what it means to be a BCorp.

In this episode of People Over Pixels Sam and Giorgio explore the overarching BCorp movement, sharing how the assessment and certification process works, and giving insights into how they spent 18-months meeting the incredibly high standards required to be certified.

The world of work has changed and so have the requirements for physical offices. With remote and hybrid working environments becoming a mainstay, employers must adapt how their physical spaces are used to accommodate distributed teams and new working styles.

This time on People Over Pixels, Sam and Giorgio round up their two-parter miniseries sharing their experiences and justifications for spending £100k to renovate their Sheffield-based office for a team spread out across the UK - from Birmingham all the way up to Aberdeen. Starting with Part 1 is highly recommended!

Part 2 shares all the details on how the gents approached the more practical elements of their grand designs - everything from how to evaluate project partners, when and how you should involve your team, and tips on how to break down and justify different project costs.

There’s also some juicy controversy as the guys take a retrospective look at what they got massively wrong about the process, and where they clashed with conflicting opinions throughout the renovation process.
