Spotlight on Excellence! We’re thrilled to announce Sivuyile Velebayi as the winner of our recent Shamwari Rhino Awards 2024 for Outstanding Service! Behind every great service moment is a story and Sivuyile from our Wild Rehabilitation Centre (WRC) has a few to share. Questions & Answers with Sivuyile: Q: What do you love most about your role? A: Interacting with animals and learning about their unique behaviors helps me understand their emotions through their actions, so I can share this knowledge with our guests. Q: What's a recent moment at WRC that you'll never forget? A: 2 female elephants came to us, Amara had bad diarrhoea & Stella was abandoned. We gave it our all to make sure that Amara was healed & Stella felt welcomed and loved. As soon as they were 100% physically fit they were released to the wild again. It was an emotional moment for me to see them released as we created a bond. They could recognize my voice. Those are the moments I will never forget. Q: Any advice for others on delivering excellent service? A: First of all we need to respect our jobs. Dedication is the key. Be willing to learn and have a good attitude. From his manager Lisa Strauss, WRC Sivuyile is a natural leader within our team that fosters a sense of camaraderie and respect to all around him. He is emotionally involved with all our animals and is the only person besides me that says good morning to all our animals when we feed them. Working with a person as compassionate and kindhearted as Sivuyile is a privilege because those are two of the most important aspects to have when working with all forms of life. Congratulations Sivuyile on your incredible achievement!

Last week marked a special moment for us at Shamwari – the first-ever Rhino Awards Gala! We came together to celebrate the incredible staff members who go above and beyond, not just for the company, but also for the community. From late-night shifts to lending a hand outside of work, these individuals truly embody the spirit of dedication. The evening was filled with excitement as each head of department had the chance to present their annual winner's achievements to a panel of judges, explaining why they deserve the ultimate title of Shamwari Employee of the Year. 🏆 It was a night of inspiration, recognition, and heartfelt appreciation. Here’s to the amazing individuals who make Shamwari shine! 🌟
