How to positively influence workplace wellbeing to protect your people. When it comes to protecting the wellbeing of people at work, I like to think of it as the sum of all the parts.  

Ignorance is rarely bliss…and when it comes to governance, it can spell the downfall of an organisation!
But how do you know what you don’t know?

Community Foundations have a unique role in being able to convene smaller organisations, to help them uplift, engage and connect to election cycles.

With winter recess almost upon us, and Federal Parliamentarians preparing for their electorate return after the budget, another key highlight of the political season begins: Labor’s National Conference and Liberal’s Federal Council.

Most not-for-profits have some sort of a Vision – even if they don’t necessarily articulate it that way – otherwise it’s unlikely that they would continue to exist for very long.

Let’s address the elephant in the room, shall we…is governance boring?

Well, I think that depends entirely on how you look at it. It can certainly seem boring if you let it, but it doesn’t have to be that way. Believe it or not, if you approach it the right way, good governance can actually be quite inspiring. And that’s how I like to think about it.

 The concept of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) seems to have gained momentum in recent years, and more and more business – large and small – are recognising the need to be a good corporate citizen, and focus on doing things ethically, responsibly, and in a way that adds value to the world, whilst also making their profits.

It seems like nearly every not-for-profit organisation I talk to these days is struggling to find people willing to put up their hands for positions on their Boards (or Committees of Management).

As we say goodbye to Pro Bono News, we move into an interesting political landscape in Australia: with almost wall-to-wall Labor governments, it raises new and different challenges for our sector.
