Team Building the Focus for Harmony Week 2025

Harmony Week is about inclusiveness, respect and a sense of belonging for all and we are celebrating these important themes across our organisation in March and April with a range of team-focussed activities.

Over recent years, many new starters have joined WATC, bringing diverse backgrounds and new perspectives to our organisation. Additionally, our corporate structure was revised last year to support the delivery of planned strategic initiatives to meet the financial needs of the Western Australian government sector, both now and into the future.

Given this extended period of organisational renewal and growth, Harmony Week, which is held annually from 17 – 23 March and is part of WATC’s Diversity and Inclusion Plan, is a valuable opportunity to prioritise team-focussed activities.

The concept this year is for leaders and their teams to participate in activities that appeal to their collective interests, with the common thread that they promote collaboration over competition and create opportunities for teamwork, innovation and creativity. The updated Harmony Day format is proving to be a huge success with teams engaging in a range of team-building activities during March and April.
