Strategy & Leadership | Retreat 2024

This month, our senior management team were together again for BSE’s annual Strategic Workshops. We swapped last year’s warm sun for drizzle and crackling fires in the Yarra Valley, with the usual blend of laughter, planning, updates and sharing. This important time allow our senior team to plan for short- and long-term priorities, review progress and make planning adjustments to improve how our teams work together and deliver projects, setting up and growing our incredible teams and the continued sustained growth of BSE.

As well as planning for our growth and enjoying the wonders of the Yarra Valley, our team tackled a corporate challenge, bonding and working hard to solve puzzles and clues, culminating in an ultimate challenge: racing to build a bike to be donated to underprivileged children. A rewarding experience requiring teamwork, creativity, and creative problem-solving. Delighted to work with Bikes for Tykes, contributing to their incredible work and make a positive impact on the community. Knowing that the bikes would be provided to and used by children who would need and appreciate the gift reminded us of the importance of giving back.

In reflecting on the workshop, CEO, Andrew Fraser shared:

‘Each year we build on our strength as a team, growing our team and hitting impressive goals! Our amazing group of people we have leading TeamBSE brought their A-Game for this year, and great outcomes and exciting plans highlight this. 

Directors and Managers brought back the outcomes and shared directly with each of our teams, ensuring we’re able to take everyone on the BSE adventure.
