Furthermore, highlighting the importance of human resource development within the council, the Mayor stated that while infrastructure, systems, and technology are vital assets, effective public service cannot be delivered through these resources without a dedicated workforce.

Buildings, systems, and technology are essential resources. However, without a dedicated workforce, these tools alone cannot deliver services to the public. Behind every successful institution is its staff. Undoubtedly, the most valuable asset of any organization is its employees.
