Behaviours How we work with each other so that everyone comes to work knowing it is a place where they will feel respected, valued, and engaged. This is focused on how we think and act around each other, and on understanding and taking responsibility for the impacts of our actions.

Leadership How we equip everyone to be leaders in our desired culture. This includes building our shared leadership capability and capacity so that everyone is self-aware, empowers others, achieves results, drives innovation, and connects with others across the system.

environment where everyone feels they are informed, have

a voice, and are listened to. This is about how we

communicate with each other and ensure that we all know what is happening and what our contribution is.

These three focus areas are aligned to our 2019 Culture Strategy. Throughout our culture change journey, we will continue to track our progress through the existing measures and outcomes outlined in the Culture Strategy, such as the People Matter Employee Survey (PMES). To provide everyone with a clear sense of the desired culture that we are working towards, we have developed a culture statement that describes our aspirational culture and that will be achieved by living our CORE Values. These are outlined over the following pages.
