Congratulations to five 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 Professional and Managerial Group (DPMG) members who received the 2013 DPMG Award last week at the DPMG annual conference. The award recognizes DPMG members for their outstanding performance or achievements.

Catherine Currell, Department Administrator, Faculty of Medicine


Catherine works in the Department of Medical Neuroscience, Faculty of Medicine, and during her short time there she has been attributed to revitalizing the department, creating a team approach and improving morale.

Among her many accomplishments to date, she was responsible for the development and implementation of a systematic cost-recovery plan for the Clinical Cadaver Program. In addition, she has demonstrated leadership by identifying infrastructure issues that have resulted in a renovation of the morgue in the Tupper Building, as well as introducing e-learning to the gross anatomy lab in the upcoming 2013-2014 academic year with the purchase of iPads to replace anatomy books.

鈥淚 can honestly say that Catherine is the most approachable and fair administrator that I have worked with at 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 over my 27 years,鈥 said Brenda Armstrong, Human Donation Program. 鈥淗er enthusiasm is an inspiration for me, as well as for others, who have the pleasure of working with her.鈥

Bev Hubley, Director, ITS Business Operations


Bev began her career at 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 more than 25 years ago starting in the Registrar鈥檚 Office. Since accepting the position as Director, ITS Business Operations, three years ago, she has demonstrated her knowledge and experience in HR practices and procedures as well as the budget process. During the merger with the former NSAC merger and 新加坡六合彩开奖直播, she was instrumental in the integration of ITS employees in both the Halifax and Truro campuses.

In 2012, ITS received the 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 Healthy Workplace Award due in large part to Bev鈥檚 enthusiastic planning and coordination efforts. She leads many ITS events that promote a healthy work environment including the annual Ring Toss picnic and various social events.

鈥淏ev exemplifies employer loyalty and demonstrates what a model employee can be with the right attitude, skills and ability to learn,鈥 said Bryan Utas, Administrative Computing Services.

Ted Migas, Project Manager, Facilities Management


Ted has been with Facilities Management since 1996 when 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 merged with the former Technical University of Nova Scotia (TUNS). In 2003, Ted advanced to become a Project Manager in Facilities Management. He is known to many in the department as the 鈥淔acilities Management Ambassador鈥, as a supporter of the merger and assisting with its successful integration. In 2012, he shared that same positive attitude with the introduction of 新加坡六合彩开奖直播鈥檚 Agricultural Campus.

One of his greatest contributions to the university has been with 新加坡六合彩开奖直播鈥檚 research activities. In the last five years, Ted has managed more than 117 research-related renovations totaling $11million. He is instrumental in guiding the researchers to a lab design that successfully achieves their requirements.

鈥淭ed is one of the most respected and admired people in Facilities Management,鈥 said Darrell Boutilier, Facilities Management. 鈥淗e has been a beacon of positivity from the day he arrived and continues to be so today. On a daily basis, he inspires others to be better people.鈥

Gaye Wishart, Advisor, Harassment Prevention, Conflict Management, Office of Human Rights, Equity and Harassment Prevention


Gaye began with Dal鈥檚 School of Physiotherapy in 1984, and since then has assumed a variety of roles within the university. In 2007, she took on her current role, and expanded the Sexual Harassment position to include Personal Harassment and Conflict Management.

During her time with Human Resources, she launched the first online application process for recruitment, making 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 one of the first in the Atlantic region to go 鈥渄igital鈥. In her current role, she has led the establishment of 新加坡六合彩开奖直播鈥檚 Personal Harassment Policy and she supports other groups on campus including the Women鈥檚 Centre, the Residence Assistants and Dal Allies. In addition, Gaye co-developed conflict resolution training programs for employees, managers and supervisors, and a video series of showing employees having difficult conversations.

鈥淕aye is a caring and considerate advisor and colleague who is highly responsive and accessible,鈥 said Janice MacInnis, Human Resources. 鈥淪he cares deeply about the experience of others and believes strongly in the power of the organization and its people.鈥

Lynn Power, Director, Human Resources, Faculty of Medicine


Lynn began her career at 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 32 years ago. In her current role as Director of Human Resources, Faculty of Medicine, she has demonstrated dedication, diligence and commitment to the welfare of faculty and staff across the Faculty of Medicine and the university. Lynn has also served as President and Vice-President of DPMG.

She has been instrumental in laying the groundwork for the Faculty of Medicine鈥檚 mentorship program for senior leaders, including department heads, associate/assistant deans and department administrators.听 Lynn has also championed the successful implementation of the university鈥檚 performance management tool, ACHIEVE, for staff across the Faculty of Medicine. One of her most notable achievements is her leadership in the Faculty鈥檚 renewed policy for faculty appointments completed in May 2013.

鈥淟ynn鈥檚 caring and thoughtful manner is at the forefront of all her interactions with faculty, staff and students,鈥 said Tom Marrie, Dean, Faculty of Medicine. 鈥淪he is always available to listen to听 and provide advice regardless of her own time commitments.鈥
