Submission highlights

This year’s strongest elements as indicated by our independent judges.

  • Culture & Purpose

  • Leadership

  • Comment from the judges

    Active Care Group provides a well-structured submission that clearly demonstrates how organisational transformation can strengthen workforce stability, leadership capability and care quality within a complex and highly regulated sector. The organisation’s purpose to enable people with complex needs to live their best possible lives is consistently reflected throughout the people strategy, with strong alignment between culture, governance and operational performance.

  • Comment from the judges

    A perfect submission. A clearly defined purpose, goals and strategy with measurable outcomes through a significant amount of change. The transformation has been leadership-led with strong expectations and support in place, ensuring success. No one size fits all approach for this diverse workforce! Love the use of the app as an accessible central communication channel. Most importantly, I can see how much of this work is embedded across the whole employee lifecycle. Excellent job!
