This May, Telstra’s Inspire Awards were presented at the TBTC CoLLAB event, which kicked off in the Barossa Valley. Telstra partners are constantly bringing innovation, ambition, and positive change to the TBTC network, and these awards exist to recognise that.
The TBTC Perth South team were ecstatic to be finalists for the Telstra Values Award, so you can imagine how thrilled we were to be announced the winner. This is thanks to the combined efforts of everyone in our TBTC network, and we wanted to share the details so everyone in our community can join in our excitement.
What is the Telstra Values Award?
Telstra is on a journey to transform, succeed and grow in an ever-changing digital landscape, and their T25 strategy is the key to making this happen. Built on the back of the successful T22 strategy, the goals of T25 are fourfold: to provide exceptional customer experiences, to provide leading network and technology solutions, to create sustained growth and value for shareholders, and to be a place people want to work.
The Telstra Values underpin this strategy, showing why company values matter since they ensure everyone in the network is acting as a team that embraces the different contributions everyone brings to the table. The power of the Telstra brand comes from the strength of working together to provide top quality solutions and services to our customers, and following through what we promise to provide. This is why teamwork matters.
The Telstra Values are what makes the T25 strategy possible, and the Telstra Values Award aims to recognise TBTCs who embody these values, which are:
- We are change makers
- We are better together
- We care
- We make it simple.
