Winner Management of People Category Award

  Parks and Gardens – an integrated System for Training, Career Development and Hazard Management.

“Parks and Gardens management needed a better way to ensure all staff were adequately trained and competent to carry out their work safely and that the information is recorded.  Staff needed to be able to plan training as part of career development in a way that would allow them to develop to their full potential and maximise their capabilities.”

“The desire to promote Environment Waikato’s vision and values to staff arose after former Chief Executive Barry Harris returned from a study trip to Darden College in North Carolina. He had a strong vision for the organisation but believed more effort was needed in expressing and communicating this vision, empowering all staff to have a part in delivering it.”
