Pop quiz
Who is stronger? The Rider or the Elephant?
The Elephant
![Page 17: Strengthening a - TEMC 2020 · •Recruitment processes to select candidates for culture fit ... Award under the Athena Swan Charter (Australia) Are we getting anywhere? 2015 Pulse](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022071016/5fcfbc064da5980a514b17ed/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
The rider can control the elephant’s path while he or she is strong and refreshed.
When the rider gets tired, the elephant starts to get more freedom to wander in its own direction.
It is the same with us.

Symbols and culture
![Page 30: Strengthening a - TEMC 2020 · •Recruitment processes to select candidates for culture fit ... Award under the Athena Swan Charter (Australia) Are we getting anywhere? 2015 Pulse](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022071016/5fcfbc064da5980a514b17ed/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
A symbol is anything that carries a particular meaning
recognized by people who share a culture (a flag, a word, a
flashing red light, a raised fist, an animal etc).
* non-verbal gestures can be very “symbolic” and diverse.
-Diverse meanings can be given to different variations of
the same object, for example, the winking of an eye.

Embedding clear and shared values into every aspect of life at Curtin will build the strong and
successful culture needed for us to realise our future potential.
As we do so, I agree with the focus on John Curtin’s sentiment: “the great university should find its
hope in the future; it should look ever forward; for it the past should be but a preparation for the greater
days to be”.
When I tracked down the 1932 article in the West Australian in which John Curtin expressed this view,
the other statement that resonated strongly with me was the view and I quote: “... above all things, the
University must have a soul. In it the divine spirit of service, and sacrifice for service, must pervade all
its works”. By doing both – striving for excellence and impact in everything we do at the same time as
ensuring that the University has a soul and a strong sense of purpose – we will realise our immense
potential and meet the expectations of all our stakeholders: our students; our staff at all of our sites,
regional and international; our alumni; and our government and industry partners.
