Antoinette Holt
MANAGER CORPORATE DEVELOPMENT, CANTERBURY BANKSTOWN COUNCIL
We engaged Yarnnup to deliver their Aboriginal cultural capability program to our executive leadership team at Canterbury Bankstown Council. It was in the midst of Covid so the program was delivered via zoom and was thoroughly engaging and informative. We received great feedback and we will be engaging Yarnnup again to deliver further training for our organisation.
Deborrah Lambourne
CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER, JOB SERVICE AUSTRALIA
We have been so impressed by Yarnnup's approach to their training and consulting that we have started a formal relationship to build our organisation capacity across the business. From the way we recruit, train and engage with staff to building relationships with external stakeholders. We see this as a long term relationship that will strengthen our organisation into the future.
