Recognition in Research: C.O.R.E Awards 2006Congratulations. Good job. Well done. Thank you. A few kind words of recognition can means so much to people. In our busy days, we don’t always take time to recognize the people around us, and help ensure they get the encouragement they need to keep doing a great job. The CAMH Outstanding Research Employee Awards (C.O.R.E) program is changing this for the Research Program. In just two years, the C.O.R.E Awards has become a signature event that is setting the standard for recognition in Research. For Kimberly Lewis-Ng the C.O.R.E Award experience has been very meaningful. As both a 2005 nominee and 2006 recipient, Kimberly was touched that her colleagues took the time to nominate her. Said Kimberly, “I really appreciated being recognized for the specific contributions my co-workers outlined in the nominations.” Her experience prompted Kimberly to join the planning committee. She feels the C.O.R.E Awards are a really positive initiative. “It’s a great experience seeing so many individuals being recognized for doing excellent work, and I want to continue to support this kind of recognition,” said Kimberly. As planning begins for the 2007 C.O.R.E Awards, Kimberly will join her fellow committee members and help grow an event that focuses positive feedback, embodies CAMH values, and supports client based business. Working with volunteers from across Research, this team will continue to build a culture of excellence, and increase motivation and productivity, all by saying thank you. For more information on the C.O.R.E Awards, contact committee Chair Sandy Richards at sandy_Richards@camh.net In 2006, the committee was thrilled to receive 32 C.O.R.E nominations for research employees and students. New in 2006, the student award recognized a graduate student who made an outstanding contribution within his or her research study area. Coming in from across the various departments, staff and student nominations were filled with overwhelming praise and countless examples of the talents, innovation, and integrity of the nominees.
