Gerome G. Gnome As the Manitoba government’s resident engagement champion, my passion is generating enthusiasm and engagement across government while highlighting the inspiring work of public servants in a fun and lighthearted way. My Background I come from a long line of gnomes who have been featured in European myths and legends. We are whimsical characters known for our welcoming and approachable nature. You will find many of my relatives in gardens all around the world, where they delight family and friends with their joyful personalities. Now that social media is a “thing”, families are taking their gnomes on vacations and taking photos of them in unique and memorable locations. This is a great way to appreciate gnomes, as we do love seeing the world. In preparation for my new role with the Manitoba government, I took a quick tour of some of the beautiful communities in our province (you can check out my photos below). But more than anything, I look forward to visiting you in your workplace. I can’t wait to meet you and help you share your stories about what you do, how you do it, and why it’s so cool and important. I also look forward to adding more locations and people to my photo album! Photo Gallery 67/ 13/
