Who Are The Rigby 50? MORE THAN 300 OF YOU ARE IN THE RUNNING
Across all of our businesses, there is one thing that makes Rigby Group special. As Sir Peter often says: “It’s people, isn’t it? Everything is about people.”
To mark the culmination of our anniversary, we asked you to pick someone that stands out as part of our one-off group-wide search to find the Rigby 50. And the response has been remarkable.
Almost 500 of you, from every part of Rigby Group took the time to nominate a colleague for their hard work, foresight or what they do to enable others.
The nominations cover everyone from managers to receptionists, warehouse workers, salespeople, IT support workers and everyone in between. It includes mentors, innovators, problem-solvers and unsung heroes. Yet they all have something in common – they each have qualities that stood out to a colleague, and get to the heart of what makes every part of Rigby Group special.
That’s why we’re publishing the names of everyone that has been nominated today – because they all deserve a bit of the spotlight.
Thank You
Adding all of the nominations together, a total of 345 people were put forward by a colleague. Congratulations to you all! You are in the running to be announced as one of our 50 winners, with Sir Peter, Steve, James and Pat Rigby having the final say.
This has been one of the most inspiring moments of our 50th year, and our winning Rigby 50 will be announced in a special publication early next week.
Every winner is set to receive a special commemorative coin and pin badge, a personal letter of thanks from Sir Peter, and a prize worth £250.
