As an NFP with a federated model structure, there are a couple of things to be aware of to ensure success and maintain a meaningful impact.  What are federated models and how are they efficient? 

While federated models can be a joy for some and frustrating for others, it is important to effectively maintain structure to ensure success. If there is frustration or a lack of clarity, there needs to be a process to resolve it efficiently and effectively, so everyone is working together as a collective.

We should take our time investigating structures such as federated models and seek a process to adapt and change, as necessary. With clarity federated models can be a joy to work with in the NFP space.

The NDIS has impacted the not-for-profit space in many ways. One of the challenges for organisations that have fully embraced the NDIS, is the allocation of funding.

One of the new requirements for ACNC is increased disclosure - related party transactions.  While compliance is important, in this podcast I focus on understanding related party transactions from a governance perspective specifically why and how to implement these changes. 

Related party transactions are similar in principle to managing conflict of interest, openness, and clarity.  By taking a step-by-step approach you will create alignment in your organisation, alignment that only governance can achieve.
