Four female staff of Vanguard International graduated from a leadership program under PNG Tribal Foundation on Wednesday 24th June 2026, here in Port Moresby.

A small but significant event for the organization, with the entire staff turning up in numbers to witness the staff attaining certificates for the completion of the 11-week program covering the 11 values through the Senisim PNG Program.

Seven others will soon complete the program.

They are now certified facilitators who can create their own tables with five to 10 members to facilitate transformation of tables either in their workplace, home, community, church, or anywhere.

Mr. Michael Elton, Commercial Manager for Vanguard International, congratulated the staff for taking a step forward in leadership growth for themselves and urged them to be better versions of themselves.

“Change starts within us before we go out to change others.”

Mr. Elton emphasized the lack of ethical leadership at all levels in the country and said that to change the country in the next 50 years, it starts with individuals.

Ms. Anzilla Miro, General Manager for Vanguard International, also stated that an employee with qualifications but without values will put you off the line.

“You’re qualified for the office you hold, but if your values are misaligned, you will go off the radar, and that is the reality of life,” she said.

She challenged the staff to live by the values of honesty, commitment, integrity, listening, purpose, among others.

She said values cannot be borrowed from someone; they live within you.
