The NICO Group recently hosted the Staff Excellence Awards for the first quarter of 2025, a prestigious event to honour the exceptional contributions of staff members across all subsidiaries.
These awards recognize the individuals and teams who have gone above and beyond in their work. Staff were rewarded in the following categories: Service Excellence, Teamwork & Collaboration, Innovation, Sales Excellence, Customer Excellence, and Managing Risk.
This celebration brought together winners from across the Group. From innovative problem-solvers and high-achieving sales teams to those delivering exceptional customer care and safeguarding operations, each winner’s work reflects the culture of excellence that drives the Group forward.
The event closed on a high note, leaving everyone with a renewed sense of motivation and pride in being part of an organization that truly values and celebrates its people.
Now, it’s time to keep the momentum going, get ready for the Q2 Staff Excellence Awards!
