During a difficult time looking after my elderly father, my colleagues very unexpectedly coordinated a group gift for me – a voucher at a local wellness centre. This kindness, despite the difficulties my own period of leave might have created for them, touched me deeply.
i held the door for someone who i saw couldnt because of how many thigns they were holding in there hands
I assisted a new co-worker on my team with their responsibilities and helped them when they required mentoring.
I am part of the continuous improvement registry team, where we meet to share ideas on how to improve our daily workload by listening to each other.

As an academic at Kaplan Business School Australia, I am working as a volunteer mentor, and every trimester, I get a student as a mentee to help with their career and personal progression. Today, I was assigned a female student who was a medical practitioner in her home country but is now following a different degree in Australia, willing to settle here. She seems to be giving up on her dreams and settling for an associate-level job, thinking that she is not good enough in her studies and incapable of passing the exams. I really want to motivate her with the success stories I know about women who have realised their dreams by working hard and passing the required exams to become medical practitioners in Australia.
I was able to encourage her and help her find the textbook she needed. I also promised to find more information for her. Our session lasted longer than expected, and I felt that I was doing the right thing by supporting her rather than letting her give up on her dream.
Coordinated and arranged for a truck and mover to retrieve a mother and her daughter’s personal items following a family breakdown. Provided emotional support during the process.
