The Parliament of Victoria document discusses:
- The history of constructing Parliament House from 1851-1855, including deciding on the site and architects.
- Architect Peter Kerr adapted the original design over 40 years, producing over 600 sketches and transforming the building in distinct stages.
- The library wing was added in 1858-1860, connecting the two legislative chambers and impressing visitors with its design.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

Cracking the Workplace Discipline Code Main.pptxWorkforce Group
Cultivating and maintaining discipline within teams is a critical differentiator for successful organisations.
Forward-thinking leaders and business managers understand the impact that discipline has on organisational success. A disciplined workforce operates with clarity, focus, and a shared understanding of expectations, ultimately driving better results, optimising productivity, and facilitating seamless collaboration.
Although discipline is not a one-size-fits-all approach, it can help create a work environment that encourages personal growth and accountability rather than solely relying on punitive measures.
In this deck, you will learn the significance of workplace discipline for organisational success. You’ll also learn
• Four (4) workplace discipline methods you should consider
• The best and most practical approach to implementing workplace discipline.
• Three (3) key tips to maintain a disciplined workplace.
3. History
• Victoria's first Legislative Council (1851-6) took
three decisions that profoundly influenced the
course and conduct of parliamentary democracy
in Victoria. It drafted a Constitution; it introduced
the Secret Ballot; it began the construction of
Parliament House.
This third decision was not easy. Arguments over
the best site in Melbourne for such a building
were intense. It was not until April 1854 that
Eastern Hill, the current Spring Street site, was
agreed upon.
4. Design History
• As importantly, it was not until December 1855 that Colonial
Engineer, Charles Pasley, handed responsibility for the design and
construction of a building for the new Parliament to two architects
in his office Peter Kerr and John George Knight. By 1853 a
Parliament House design competition had been held. The entries
were judged inadequate. As a result Pasley had himself produced
an ordinary design that had been accepted by the Legislative
Council.
• Kerr in turn adapted and significantly improved Pasley's work
transforming it. He laboured over his drawing board, working on
the building on and off for the next forty years. In the process he
produced more than 600 detailed sketches and designs, while his
colleague Knight managed the actual site construction.
• From this team effort emerged one of Melbourne's most dramatic
nineteenth century buildings constructed in distinct stages
14. No sooner were the Chambers complete than work began on the Library.
Construction of this eastern wing began in 1858 and was completed in
1860.
This had the effect of joining the two legislative chambers at the rear,
thereby forming a `U-shaped' building.
Visitors to the Library remarked on Kerr's rich architectural imagination;
on the impact of gas lights and tiers of books, curving staircases and a
central ten-sided table, on the interior dome of the centre chamber and
slanting light from the east-facing windows.
They were also impressed by the classical architectural detail found on
the east facade. Faced with sandstone and classical in allusion, it was the
first expression of Peter Kerr's plans for the entire building. Victorians
and their Members of Parliament were pleased.
No further construction took place for another 18 years. John George
Knight severed his contact with the Public Works Department, while
Peter Kerr contributed designs and drawings for such buildings as
Melbourne's Post Office and Government House.
36. Parliament of Victoria is open to public when members of parliament are not sitting,
however it is obvious what is most valued here is its parliamentary members.
Security screening ensures the safety of its members (my nail scissors were
confiscated during the site visit) and parts of the prestigious building are off limits
(the public/library staff may dine in the strangers corridor but are not permitted in
the dining room). The specialised library staff are employed to satisfy the requests
and demands of parliamentary members. Reference librarians are on hand to help
clarify information used in speeches, reports etc. The loans enquiries desk is manned
at all times.
The intranet is designed to be easy to navigate and meet the needs of its intended
clientele. An associate of mine is employed solely to upload relevant videos and
include a synopsis of these onto the intranet. Another library staff member is
employed in a similar role this time for uploading print material. Members of
parliament are able to access the intranet from the library and their office/s.
37. Newspapers are displayed and kept and made available so the elected members
of parliament can access the relevant news of the areas they represent (- see
slide 24).
The interiors of the Parliament building/s are impressive. ‘Classical decorations,
gold-leaf, columns, statuary, burgundy carpets and seating in the Legislative
Council, forest-green in the Legislative Assembly duplicating the Westminister
colours, added sophistication to an otherwise callow Melbourne. Its citizens
were overwhelmed’ (Parliament of Victoria, 2010). A rich and indulgent design
such as this illustrates that its users are of upmost importance. The library is
designed and staffed in such a way that its sole purpose is to fulfil the needs of
those most valued – the parliamentary members.
Areas still to explore: How many library staff are employed and what are their
specific roles. What qualifications and experience do the librarians possess?
