RP
held its annual Administrative Division Corporate Retreat on 4 December 2006 at
the Orchid Country Club. 10 administrative departments with a total of 46
participants took part in this year’s combined retreat jointly organized by
Office of Procurement and Technology (OPT) and Office of Human Resource (OHR).
The
day began with an opening speech by Deputy Principal, Mr Eden Liew, who shared
with us his insights of the challenges faced by educational institutions in the
face of declining birth rates and how RP can further distinguish itself from
other emerging institutes of higher learning. Eden also shared with all admin
staff his vision for RP and how administrative departments can continue to
provide high quality services that will contribute in propelling RP towards
greater achievements.
The
Office of Planning and International Operations (OPI) next presented the 2007
Corporate Indicators which gave staff important insights of the direction where
RP will head towards in the next 5 years. This was followed by individual
departmental discussions where Heads of Department engaged in lively discussions
with their staff on the departmental directions and work plans for the coming
year.
After the engaging discussions and lively exchanges, it was time for a hearty
lunch at the country club’s buffet lounge. This was followed by some fun-filled
team-building games to promote teamwork and communication. Most importantly, it
brought staff from different departments closer together which would not have
been possible back in the office environment. The team-building program ended on
a high note with each team providing a meaningful interpretation of the learning
points from the team-building games.
The
day finally came to a close with the presentation of prizes to the winning team
from the team building games. We are also happy to note that all participants
went home feeling tired but satisfied after a meaningful exchange of ideas and a
good work-out!
