At Like-Minded, we believe trust is earned through the way you do business every day. That’s why we’re proud to have achieved both Canterbury Trusted accreditation and B Corp certification.
Like-Minded Learning was the first New Zealand learning and development company to achieve B Corp certification back in 2021. This certification reflects our commitment to using business as a force for good. We balance purpose and profit by caring for our people, our environment, and our communities, and we’re working towards a more sustainable and equitable future for everyone.
The B CorporationTM has been our guiding light for a number of years as the business got started, and then supporting us as we grew over the last few years into what we represent today.
Canterbury Trusted is an independent accreditation that recognises businesses that demonstrate integrity, accountability, sound business practices, and a genuine commitment to their people, customers, and community.
It’s a mark of confidence that tells clients, partners, and stakeholders they are working with a business that has been independently assessed and verified, not just one that claims to do the right thing.
We do what we say we’ll do and hold ourselves accountable to high standards.
We’re committed to delivering quality experiences and outcomes every time.
Our practices have been independently assessed against recognised business standards.
We prioritise strong relationships, meaningful learning experiences, and positive outcomes for everyone involved.
Like any great learning journey, we believe there’s always room to learn, adapt, and get better.
Trust sits at the heart of everything we do.
When organisations partner with Like-Minded, they’re trusting us with their people, their culture, and their learning journeys. That responsibility is something we take seriously.
Being Canterbury Trusted provides independent recognition that the way we operate behind the scenes reflects the same values we bring to our client relationships every day.
For us, it’s about:
We’re super proud to be a certified B Corp! To earn this badge, we had to prove that we are serious about our presence making a positive impact on the world and the future.
We prioritise exceptional service and support in every aspect of your learning journey. We uphold the highest standards of transparency, ethics, and integrity in all our business practices.
We make sure everyone feels valued and empowered, with opportunities for professional development, and we believe in fostering a supportive and inclusive work environment.
We’re always looking for ways to reduce our environmental footprint. We reduce waste, conserve energy, and promote sustainable practices in all aspects of our business.
We believe in helping others, whether it’s financially supporting local initiatives or volunteering our services. We donate to several charitable causes that align with our values, and offer favourable rates for some community-based projects.
We pay the right rate for the work and are living wage accredited. We choose suppliers who share our commitment to ethical and sustainable practices.
