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) practical workshops aim to equip staff and students to embody values-driven behaviour and leadership.
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.
All SU staff from all the campuses are hereby invited to join this journey by attending one of these full-day workshops. Open workshops are available for staff across the University – this enables interaction between diverse individuals from a variety of environment.
Workshops will take place on the following dates in the second semester:
* Tuesday 13 August 2024
* Tuesday 27 August 2024
* Thursday 3 October 2024
* Thursday 10 October 2024
