Uniting Wimmera was the recipient of the high performing team award.
Support for families and community manager Louise Netherway said the recognition was a good affirmation of the hard work each staff member has showed.
Mrs Netherway said staff members had participated in a leadership program, called Leading Teams, over the last two years.
She said the program focused on improving leadership development within the organisation.
Mrs Netherway said Uniting Wimmera has a different perspective on leadership among its staff members. Rather than following a traditional hierarchical approach, she said the organisation focused on empowering each person to take ownership of their work to provide better outcomes for themselves, the business and clients.
“We aren’t just focused on leadership in a hierarchy, but empowering everyone at all levels,” she said.
