which together articulate ‘The Mirvac Way’

and create the foundation from which

‘Mirvac Stars’ was built.

But first, a step back.

How could Mirvac encourage every employee to live and breathe ‘The Mirvac Way’?

By recognising their employees

for living by their values

and ensuring that it’s fair,

consistent and attainable

for every single person involved.

How did an initiative like this work?

We’ll start at the beginning.

The Objectives.

And achieve this throughout every division of the business.

Not just today, but for years to come.

• To encourage employees to actively acknowledge Mirvac Values in action

• Reward employees that demonstrate the Mirvac Values on a day-to-day basis

Mirvac developed a solution internally.

But realising greatness isn’t always easy.

The Mirvac Executive Team wouldn’t approve

the format of the program.

Back to the drawing board. Focus groups were conducted involving every division of Mirvac,

including the program sceptics.

Which led to The Rethink. And Mirvac identified the need to outsource

the administration of their program.

They realised it required thought beyond a technology platformif they were to truly inspire their people

and ignite a culture of recognition.

We partnered with Mirvac to design a best-practice solution

And together we launched ‘Mirvac Stars’ A company-wide reward

and recognition program.

Congratulations

on being recognised for the value
