Recognition of Achievement in Professional Development

It wouldn’t be VILLAGE SUMMIT 2022 without DCM Institute taking a moment to recognise achievement in professional development. It was only fitting that the largest event of the year, recognised the greatest number of Village Managers.

In presenting the awards, Tiffany Folbigg, National DCM Institute Administrator, said “it is always a pleasure to stand up here and recognise the achievement of Village Managers who have reached a milestone of 1,000 Professional Development Points.”

Recognised on the day was Leanne McPherson (Adventist Senior Living), Kerrie Smile (Australian Unity), Anna Wilson Golden Lifestyles), Tony Lieschke (Kensington Gardens), Robyn Parry-Lyons (Aveo) and Lisa Ciantar, Jennifer Ward, Sonia Lechner, Donna Hollingsworth, Doug Read, and Jovica Sumenic who are all from Uniting.

Congratulations to all. Professional development starts with a commitment from the individual, with the support of who you work for. The DCM Institute is committed to recognising excellence in 2023 and looks forward to sharing this journey with more than 500 Village Manager and Head Office staff participants across the country.
