Natalie Vine, Peopleworks Leader Southeast Asia, Flight Centre Travel Group We are extremely excited and very proud, and speechless about winning this award. It’s something we really wanted, but it’s one of those things you don’t want to hope too much for in case it doesn’t happen. We won this award because of the support from our whole business. We all strongly believe that a great place to work and culture is kind of an unwritten policy. It’s how your company operates without putting it down on paper. It’s an expectation we hold each other to, and it means we all have a great time and a great place to work.
