Dear all,
I am writing this letter of intent to express my interest in joining the Board of Governors of the University of Ottawa.
Through this opportunity, I will be able to contribute directly towards the University’s growth and reach for advancing the education and contributing to this thriving institution.
My intention of joining this committee is the following: Students’ success defines our success. It is our job to provide them with the necessary resources and support for advancing in their personal and professional growth. To me, support staff plays a major role in day-to-day execution of our desired goal.
By becoming a member of Board of Governors, I will have an opportunity to represent my fellow support staff members, and act for the benefit of the well-being of each and every member of this group.
My focus will be on the following:
- Mental and Physical well-being of support staff members
- Safe and inclusive workplace for support staff
- Increasing the productivity and efficiency of support staff members by providing them with the required resources.
- Improving the working conditions and implementing accessibility policies for members of support staff who are physically/mentally/emotionally challenged.
By becoming an active member of the Board of Governors, I intend to emphasize on our institution’s growth and success in terms of its outreach, diversity, inclusivity, and collaboration with external members of this community.
This opportunity will also allow me to learn more about our institution and contribute towards its overall success.
Sincerely,
-D! (Puranjan Gaur)
