Employee of the Year 2017

As both a sponsor and judge of the Talent ID Employee of the Year Award for the Westpac Rotorua Business Excellence Awards, along with my co-judge Don Gunn from Eves Realty, the task has been both rewarding, awe-inspiring and incredibly challenging.

Congratulations to the businesses and individuals who took the time and put themselves out of their comfort zone to be recognised amongst their business peers.

Regardless of your businesses size and access to resources, dealing with workplace grievances or disciplinary processes will be challenging, time-consuming, and often costly.
