Mind Evolution Code of Practice

Our core values shape the culture and define the character of Mind Evolution; they serve as a foundation in how we act, make decisions and deliver services. We live the core values through delivering inspirational results and changes to individual behaviors.

Confidentiality

Mind Evolution is committed to maintaining the highest degree of integrity in all our dealings with potential, current and past clients, both in terms of normal commercial confidentiality, and the protection of all personal information received in the course of providing any services concerned. We extend the same standards to all our customers, suppliers and associates.

Ethics

We always conduct our services honestly and honorably, and expect our clients and suppliers to do the same. Our advice, assistance and the methods imparted through our training or coaching, take proper account of all ethical considerations, together with the protection and enhancement of the moral position of our clients and suppliers.

Duty of care

Our actions and advice will always conform to relevant law, and we believe that all businesses and organizations, including Mind Evolution, should avoid causing any adverse effect in any organizations or individual we deal with, the local and wider environments, and the well-being of society at large.

Conflict of interest

Due to the sensitive nature of our particular services, we will not provide a service to a direct competitor of a client, and we generally try to avoid any dealings with competitor companies even after the cessation of services to a client.

Contracts

Our contract will usually be in the form of a proposal, including aims, activities, costs, timescales and deliverables. The quality of our service and the value of our support provide the only true basis for continuity. We always try to meet our clients' requirements, and particularly for situations where an external funding provider requires more official parameters and controls.

Intellectual property and moral rights

We retain the moral rights in, and ownership of, all intellectual property that we create unless agreed otherwise in advance with our clients. In return we respect the moral and intellectual copyright vested in our clients' intellectual property.

Quality assurance

We maintain the quality of what we do through constant ongoing review with our clients, of all aims, activities, outcomes and the cost-effectiveness of every activity. We encourage regular review meetings and provide regular progress reports. This consultancy has been accredited under a number of quality assurance schemes. Further details are available on request.

Professional conduct

We conduct all of our activities professionally and with integrity. We take great care to be completely objective in our judgement and any recommendations that we give, so that issues are never influenced by anything other than the best and proper interests of our clients.

Equality and discrimination

We always strive to be fair and objective in our advice and actions, and we are never influenced in our decisions, actions or recommendations by issues of gender, race, creed, colour, age or personal disability.
