There are many great reasons for your organisation to get involved with the HESTA Awards.



Excellent work shouldn't go unnoticed, as leadership expert and author of Leading on the Edge – Extraordinary stories from the most extreme workplace on the planet, Rachael Robertson, explains in Leader of the pack.
 
“An inspiring leader will find reasons to celebrate… Whether it’s with an event, a reward or a simple thank you, the acknowledgement and recognition will inspire and motivate,” says Rachael.
 
HESTA’s national awards program sets out to do just this – to recognise individuals and organisations that demonstrate outstanding care, innovation and leadership in health and community services.
 
All disciplines across health and community services are celebrated through the five award programs – nursing and midwifery, early childhood education and care, community sector, aged care and primary health care.
