World Paediatric Project hosts retreat and workshop for its regional staff

The World Paediatric Project (WPP), said it has successfully concluded its first regional strategic planning and team building workshop held earlier this month.
In a release the WPP said the workshop was attended by the CEO, Vafa Akhavan; a member of the Board of Directors, Tom Bond; all of the regional country representatives, along with other US and local staff members.

The sessions held at the Young Island Resort from September 5-10 were centred on transition and strategic planning for the next three years, database training, team building and overall wellness components.

The workshop was conducted to facilitate the training and empowerment for all the staff of the Caribbean, the WPP said in a release.

Executive Director for the Caribbean, Lauren McIntosh-Shallow said it was important to bring the team together and strengthen training across the board as WPP seeks to continuously improve the quality of care and service given to the families which the organisation serves throughout the region.
