We achieved our purpose through embedding a positive workplace culture where ‘how’ we do things is just as important as ‘what’ we do. As an organisation, we set a clear Strategic Direction, supported by our Corporate Plan, Risk Tolerance Statement and Risk Policy and Framework, section plans and individual performance agreements. This provided a clear line of sight for our people between their individual roles and our Strategic Direction.
All our work is supported by our United Leadership behaviours (One NHFB, Enhanced Trust, Open Communication, and Own It).
We continued to strengthen our leadership and culture to remain an employer of choice. As an organisation, we are committed to:
reflecting the diversity of the Australian community in our workforce
building and strengthening our people capability
investing in our people through learning and development.
