Examples of our Learning in action

Women of Winslow Mentoring Program

The Women of Winslow mentoring program helps guide us in further connecting, supporting and developing our female employees.

Through our internal learning and development capability we have developed a program that includes on-going training for Senior Leaders (including  unconscious bias training) and a new dedicated module in our Site Leadership Training Programs.

It also includes Female Mentor Training whereby a number of women from across the business are selected to participate in workshops teaching them the leadership and communication skills to become effective Mentors. Upon which our newly trained Mentors are connected with other females (Mentees) from across the business and provide them with ongoing support and guidance.

‘You can’t be what you can’t see’

Site Leadership Program

The Winslow Site Leadership Program is designed for our construction workers to further develop site leadership and civil construction skills.

Over a 12 month period, this internally developed and facilitated program uplifts employee knowledge and skills in constructing subdivisions, road infrastructure and managing teams. Successful graduates of the Site Leadership Program are often promoted to Leading Hand roles, and later the role of Foreman.

Our employees are invited annually to apply to join the program. Successful applicants emanate the Winslow values: Family, Accountability, Commitment, Empowerment and Safety.

If you are an aspiring construction worker seeking an express career path into the Australian civil construction industry, then Winslow is the place for you.

 

Mentoring our future leaders

We know our people have the passion to succeed, therefore, Winslow is committed to empowering our people to achieve their full potential by supporting them through our 180-degree mentoring program. Our best in industry Senior Leaders generously invest in our emerging leaders and are willing to help by imparting technical knowledge and sharing invaluable industry experience as part of our management ethos. Onsite mentoring is an important element of The Winslow Way of learning. Across Business Units and across Solutions, our Senior Leaders are easily assessable, approachable, and present on all projects providing guidance through formal and informal practical training opportunities.

 

Machine Operators Course

We provide our site-based employees with the opportunity to develop new skills and advance their career with us through our inhouse Machine Operators Course, guaranteeing hundreds of hours of machine training on machines such as excavators, scrapers, rollers, graders and compactors.

We have three trainers traveling around our projects everyday providing hands on training to upskill our people on how to operate all models of plant and equipment effectively, efficiently and safely.

Our trainers create personalised logbooks to record individual training hours and provide an inhouse assessment to sign off verification of competency.

After which, Winslow organises a registered RTO to visit and externally assess for relevant plant tickets.

Our newly qualified operators are provided with ongoing mentoring from our trainers to increasingly enhance their skills and knowledge.
