On Friday night, at Crown Palladium, the Carlisle Homes team came together for a magical evening to mark the incredible achievements of 2024. Our entire team and their partners enjoyed an evening filled with festive cheer and celebration. A captivating choir, roving performers, and giant snow globe set the perfect celebratory mood. It was a night to celebrate the success, collaboration, and milestones we achieved together this year. Events like this are a small tribute to the dedication, hard work, and passion of the entire Carlisle team. On behalf of the Executive Leadership Team and John Doulgeridis, a sincere thank you to every member of the Carlisle team for your loyalty and commitment. It is great to see the strength of our company, our team, our suppliers, and our customers through what has been another challenging year for our industry. Wishing our team a safe and joyful holiday season. #wearecarlisle #welcometobetter #lifesbetter #gptw #events #construction #culture #celebrate #endofyear

We understand that building a home is a major life milestone, often accompanied by a range of emotions. Unfortunately, many industries, including ours, are seeing a rise in physical and emotional harm. That’s why we’ve proactively introduced our Zero Harm program.       Our Zero Harm program is about working towards eliminating physical and psychological harm.  In partnership with Master Builders Victoria (MBV), Carlisle Homes is incredibly proud to have designed and implemented a bespoke simulation training program focusing on providing our team with greater confidence in emotional regulation, managing challenging encounters, and the essential practice of self-care and compassion.      Using real-life scenarios tailored to various cohorts of our team, the Zero Harm program combines classroom and live simulations. Participants tackle real-life challenges and diverse personalities, building practical skills for application in the field.   With over 280 Carlisle Team members now having completed the training, we strongly encourage others to benefit from the investment we’ve made into this program.       Designed with the broader industry in mind, this program aims to ensure a psychologically safe future for professionals in construction, real estate, and other complex service industries. This is a fabulous industry with great career opportunities, satisfaction and enjoyment – let's keep it that way by focusing on Zero Harm for all.      Click here (https://bit.ly/4gyYGit) to read our recent feature article or for any training enquiries, please contact the MBV Training Team at trainingenquiries@mbav.com.au   To view our Zero Harm video click here - https://bit.ly/4gz2DDL

What do you get when high-octane fun, teamwork, and excellence collide? We Are Carlisle Day 2024! This annual event brings together our entire team to strengthen connections, reflect on our progress, and set our sights on the year ahead.

Our Managing Director, John Doulgeridis, along with our Executive Leadership Team, shared valuable insights into the volume residential building industry as we look ahead to 2025. Our focus clear – we are dedicated to delivering exceptional homes for our customers while continuing to invest in the experience, growth and development of our team.

Two teams and 10 individuals were celebrated for their outstanding contributions to Carlisle’s success – a moment of pride that had the entire room buzzing. With a focus on teamwork, connection, and fun, days like these play a vital role in shaping our dynamic culture. Together, we will build on our achievements and drive towards continued success in the year ahead. #wearecarlisle #lifesbetter

At Carlisle, we believe in helping our community be better, which is why we’re proud to partner with LifeChanger Foundation for the third consecutive year for the KM4KIDS, a 21-day health and wellbeing challenge. 79 Carlisle Team members tied their laces, embraced the challenge, and logged every kilometre to support the mental health journey of young people. Recognising that the minor challenge of tiredness and fatigue would empower young people to tackle life’s challenges with confidence, we again held our 24-hour treadmill challenge with incredible passionate and selfless team members taking shifts around the clock. We collectively covered 3,700KMs, raised over $5,000 and continued a much-needed conversation within our teams on the importance of youth mental health. Overall, LifeChanger raised $86,155 and tracked a total of 13,149.28KMs. Every dollar raised goes directly towards LifeChanger preventative youth mental health programs, helping young people build resilience, find their inner strength, and work towards brighter. A shout out to our inspiring team both locally and our international team from Mitek, Vietnam, who participated with us for the first time and stepped up to the challenge. For those who walked, or generously donated, you’ve done something incredible – you’ve changed lives through the incredible work of the LifeChanger Foundation.

As the Summer Olympics has come to a close in Paris, so has our inaugural 2024 Carlisle Games. Over the past two weeks, our office was alive with excitement as teams from across the business came together to compete in various games and activities. Much like the Olympic Games symbolise unity, teamwork, and the pursuit of excellence, our Carlisle Games exemplified these qualities in abundance. The event kicked off with a French-inspired opening ceremony and was designed to get people up from their desk and make the most of the brilliant perks at Carlisle Homes headquarters including, Basketball, Table Tennis, Shuffle Board and Air Hockey.  Throughout the two weeks, teams competed fiercely in various playoffs, culminating in a gold medal-winning challenge where three office-based teams faced off to build a flat-pack dog kennel. These kennels have since been donated to some very happy furry customers at the RSPCA, and we're pleased to report that all teams are still working harmoniously together - despite the known challenges of a flat pack assembly!  The sportsmanship and camaraderie displayed throughout the Carlisle Games truly captured the spirit of Carlisle.  We are so proud of all the Australian representatives at the 2024 Paris Olympics - you’ve done Australia proud, as have our very own 2024 Carlisle Games participants. #wearecarlisle #officeolympics #carlislehomes
