Page Content:
The values of Stellenbosch University (SU) relate to the believes and attitudes that guide our behaviour (“our action guides”). It provides the golden standard for the kind of community we aspire to be. Therefore, these values – excellence, compassion, equity, respect and accountability – need to become part of how we act, make decisions and deal with ethical challenges.

The University’s Values in Action (ViA) project includes practical workshops that aim to equip staff and students to embody values-driven behaviour and leadership. All SU staff are invited to join this journey by attending one of these full-day workshops. 

Themes and skills
The basic ViA workshop will enable participants to develop a common understanding of the kind of university community we would like to be and to acquire skills to manage possible values conflicts. The following themes are covered during the workshop:
* The meaning of values;
* Values conflicts and how to resolve them;
* How to integrate values in how we behave and relate to others; and
* The integration of values through leadership and teamwork.

Although the basic ViA workshop can be focused within a specific division or department, open workshops are also available for staff across the University. This enables interaction between diverse individuals from a variety of environments.

Open workshop in June
The next open workshop is on Thursday 6 June 2024. (All the spaces for the workshop on Monday 27 May are filled.)

Please contact Jacolette Kloppers at jacolette@sun.ac.za to RSVP. The workshops are presented at the L’Avenir wine estate near Stellenbosch. More details will be communicated to the attendees.

Workshops for specific environments
If you would like to discuss and arrange a specific workshop for your division/department, please send a request to jacolette@sun.ac.za.
