In the past ten years of my career change I have thought myself lucky to have an organisation such as Workright/GEM to help me along the way. … Workright/GEM saw the potential that I had… Workright/GEM understood my needs and were happy to work around my already busy schedule… , no question too hard, no time too late, and always time to listen…. I received great feedback….without Dr luceille and her great team I would not be the Trainer I am today.
The Diploma of Management has given me the necessary tools to progress from a leading hand to a Section Coordinator within Bradken.
It has honed my understanding of process controls and management hierarchy which has made me an invaluable part of the middle management team.
Dealing with everyday problems in a heavy manufacturing environment the diploma has prepared me by giving me the basic understanding of risk assessment and job safety control systems.
With the knowledge I have acquired from the diploma I have no doubt that I will progress within Bradken to senior management.
