Core Values Driving Nicholsons
1. Creativity: Innovating for a Sustainable Future
Creativity at Nicholsons extends far beyond traditional garden design. It is embedded in every process, from menu curation at The Yurt to tackling complex industry challenges. The company prides itself on forward-thinking approaches, daring to challenge conventional practices.
One of the standout initiatives that exemplifies this creativity is the Green Design Audit. This pioneering framework is set to transform industry standards by integrating sustainability and environmental considerations into every project. As climate change and ecological pressures intensify, Nicholsons continues to lead the way in developing solutions that benefit both clients and the planet.
2. Passion for the Planet: Sustainability at the Core
Sustainability is at the core of Nicholsons’ mission. From preserving ancient oak trees to enhancing biodiversity across projects, the company is committed to making a positive impact on the natural world. Every project is designed with ecological benefits in mind, ensuring that nature not only survives but thrives.
This passion for the planet is evident in the company’s holistic approach to landscape management. Whether working on a large-scale forestry project or a private garden, Nicholsons prioritises environmental responsibility. Their expertise in arboriculture, ecology, and biodiversity ensures that all projects contribute to a greener, healthier future.

Nicholsons views its clients as partners, fostering long-term relationships built on trust and collaboration. Dedication to client needs is a fundamental value, ensuring that every project is tailored to individual requirements, budgets, and sustainability goals.
The team at Nicholsons takes the time to engage with clients early in the planning process, carefully assessing and refining project decisions.

The Importance of Challenging Conversations in the Workplace
In March the People Ecosystem was lucky enough to be joined by Sally Naunton, CEO of The Bray Group. Having worked with Sally to help unpick some work challenges, I know she has a brilliant blend of being caring whilst expecting high performance and not shying away from the space that’s about tricky conversations. I spend a lot of time helping clients in this space which is why I wanted to get stuck into the subject of feedback, particularly when it feels uncomfortable and is about poor performance.
