This night was all about recognising individuals and companies that have stood out in the strata community sector for having made a difference in their workplace and on behalf their clients.
As our Chairman, Angela Whitbread, shared on the night, “When I was growing up and dreaming of being in business I used to think that there was a magic formula for great companies being great or for an individual being exceptional in the workplace, but after many years of experience in business I have seen that the essential quality of greatness in the work place is the ability to develop genuine relationships based on respect and integrity and having a greater purpose which goes beyond simple financial reward.”
Congratulations again to all the winners. We look forward to continuing our partnership with SCA (NSW) in 2015 to be part of these awards as we continue our mission to empower people, business and communities to thrive.
