The Sector Is Transforming Faster Than Most Organisations Can Adapt
Refounding Your Organisation for What Matters Now & Next
Clarify Strategy. Build Leadership Capacity. Stay Aligned With Your Purpose.
For independent care and community sector CEOs and Boards facing strategic renewal, transformation, or scaling for the 2030s.
WHY THIS MATTERS NOW
Demand surging 50%.
Funding models breaking.
Workforce declining 110,000 by 2030.
Strategic plans obsolete within quarters, not years.
Traditional planning can't keep pace with today's transformation pressure.
We help purpose-led organisations build transformative strategic capacity through systematic frameworks rooted in your organisational wisdom - not borrowed playbooks or consultant dependency.
THE TRANSFORMATION PRESSURE IS REAL
Across the care and community sector, the numbers tell a stark story:
Providers operating at a loss (KPMG Australian Aged Care Sector Analysis, 2023
Increase in food assistance requests, 2023 vs
pre-pandemic (Foodbank Australia)
Revenue declined 2.9% annually over past 5 years (IBISWorld Industry Analysis, 2025)
Costs rose 7.8% in 2023—highest in 3 decades—while donation growth slowed (Australian Bureau of Statistics)
Traditional strategic planning can't keep pace. By the time you've completed an 18-month planning cycle, the terrain has shifted. Boards are questioning readiness. Funders want demonstrated transformation capacity. Staff are signaling that old ways aren't enough.
This isn't about working harder or being more efficient.
It's about fundamentally building your organisation's capacity to navigate continuous transformation.

Navigating What Matters Now and Next
Industry leading CEOs, Board Directors and Transformation Executives of organisations like yours
share how they're navigating strategic refounding and
building leadership capacity for the 2030s.
Not presentations. Real conversations about real strategic choices.
UNDERSTANDING THE TREK TERRAIN
Purpose-led transformation isn't a linear path. It's a Trek with distinct terrain.
Understanding where you are determines what you need next.
Recognition
Stage 1
You sense something isn't working. Strategy feels disconnected. Staff signal old ways aren't enough. A deeper purpose is rising but you haven't named it yet.
What matters most: Courage to choose.
The Fundamental Choice
Stage 2
This is the crossroads. Management or purpose? Constraint or possibility? Fear or love?
What matters most: Clarity about which paradigm you're choosing to lead from.
Building Capacity
Stage 3
You've chosen purpose-led. Now you need frameworks that work—reconnecting strategy to heritage, building execution discipline, developing leadership capacity that scales.
What matters most: Systematic frameworks your team owns.
Demonstrable Readiness
Stage 4
You can articulate your approach with confidence. You have lead indicators that prove capability. Board, funders, and partners see your readiness.
What matters most: Evidence that opens doors.
The Trek Terrain Assessment reveals where you are and what you specifically need next.
WHAT THIS ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE
We facilitated Surf Life Saving Australia's 2025-2030 strategic planning process, meaningfully engaging 198,916 members across 315 clubs using our innovative squad model approach. The result: Strategic Plan 2030 launched July 1, 2025, with genuine member ownership across the entire movement.
Traditional wisdom says you can't meaningfully engage 200,000 people in strategic planning. SLSA proved you can with systematic frameworks, heritage-centered approach, and the right engagement model.
PURPOSE-LED ORGANISATIONS
FACE TWO INTERCONNECTED CHALLENGES
STRATEGIC CLARITY
CHALLENGE 1
Strategy feels disconnected from heritage and founding purpose
Each planning conversation starts from scratch
Uncertainty about direction—multiple paths forward but no clear way to choose
Paralysis when facing strategic decisions because you lack a north star to guide choices
Stakeholders sensing drift but can't articulate what's needed
No systematic approach to strategic thinking
Board questioning whether we're ready for what's coming
"We need strategic direction that honours who we are while preparing us for what's next"
EXECUTION CAPACITY
CHALLENGE 2
Everyone is too busy, too many competing priorities—operating on autopilot instead of with intention
Ad hoc reviews that drift and get forgotten
Each leader makes it up their own way
No systematic progression pathways
Strong individuals but no scalable leadership capacity
Can't demonstrate transformation readiness to board or funders
"Our strategy is clear, but execution keeps drifting"
What this costs you
Board confidence erodes. Staff disengage from "just another plan." Stakeholders question your capability for transformation or growth. Strategic cycles feel like another round of "squeezing the lemon" of efficiency. You can't demonstrate readiness when opportunities arise. Every decision becomes harder because there's no clarity about what you're fundamentally here to do.
Solution
Reconnect with your founding purpose, map your terrain, create genuine stakeholder ownership, and build repeatable frameworks your team owns. When you're clear on your purpose and heritage, uncertainty becomes navigable—you have a compass for making choices.
Reconnect with your founding purpose, map your terrain, create genuine stakeholder ownership, and build repeatable frameworks your team owns.
What this costs you
Can't position for growth opportunities or strategic partnerships. Can't demonstrate succession readiness. Can't scale beyond heroic individual effort. Lose talented people because there's no clear development pathway. Board sees strategy drift and questions leadership capability. Leaders are exhausted, reactive, and overwhelmed—unable to create space for what matters most.
Solution
Through MOJO Practice™ and the 4 Lead Indicators of Transformation Flow, we develop demonstrable capacity that proves readiness:
Presence: Foundation for everything—leaders shift from reactive/autopilot/"too busy" mode to intentional, present leadership that creates space for what matters
Relating: Built on presence—move from silos to cross-functional collaboration and trust
Feed-Forward: Built on relating—transform from backward-looking reviews to proactive growth orientation
Spark Kindling: Rippling impact—scale from heroic individuals to lifting leaders and multiplying impact across your ecosystem
This isn't training. It's systematic infrastructure with dashboards, templates, and frameworks that scale from 10 leaders to 1000s with measurable progression pathways boards and funders can see.
WHAT THIS ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE
We partnered with Australasian College of Emergency Medicine (ACEM) to support their Acting CEO transition during a period of significant change. Within 6 months, ACEM moved from potential organizational destabilization to shared clarity and confidence across their federated structure of 9 Regional Faculties spanning 2 countries.
The challenge: Support the Acting CEO and Executive Leadership Team during transition, prevent potential employee backlash, improve communication across a complex membership-based organization.
Acting CEO, Olly Jones
"Working with Bernie and Vee since Emily left has been great for our stability, progress and growth. It's a collective language and a collaborative framework and approach that works just really, really well for us. More intentional about the strategy to be delivered, better connection, trust and confidence."
THE PurposeOrgOS™Approach: WHY IT'S DIFFERENT
Most consulting applies borrowed frameworks. We help you unlock the wisdom already in your organisation.
KNOW/FOCUS/BE FRAMEWORK™
The foundation for purpose-led transformation across strategy, execution, and leadership.
What This Solves
Strategy disconnected from purpose and heritage
Plans that don't translate to daily operations
Leadership capacity that doesn't scale systematically
How It works
Know: Reconnect strategy to your founding purpose and heritage
Focus: Build disciplined execution systems
Be: Develop wisdom-based leadership capacity that scales
The Impact
Your strategy becomes how you work, not a document on a shelf. Leadership scales from 10 to 100+ systematically.
Wisdom Capacity Integration Practice™
Your organisation already has wisdom. We help you integrate it with your operating rhythms.
What This Solves
Organisational wisdom locked in silos (founding documents, long-serving staff, patterns of success)
Purpose as aspiration rather than lived capability
Losing heritage during growth or transformation
How It works
We integrate your existing wisdom with your operating rhythms - meetings, reviews, planning cycles, so purpose becomes embedded in how you work.
The Impact
Purpose becomes a lived capability, not just an aspiration. Your wisdom scales as you grow.
MOJO Practice™ (Vee Haslam)
Developed by Vee Haslam. Stay aligned with your purpose when it matters most through Mindful Pause, Openhearted Observation, Joyful Surrender, and Original Essence.
What This Solves
Leaders know what presence means but can't embody it under pressure
Reactivity and autopilot mode instead of intentional leadership
Gap between understanding and living yourvalues
How It works
Your Pocket MOJO™ is the only daily presence practice training app specifically for purpose-driven leaders. Using Vee Haslam's proprietary 4 Presence Capacities MOJO Practice™ to train presence muscle memory and calm the nervous system.
The Impact
Leaders shift from reactive to responsive. Intentional leadership becomes your automatic response rather than requiring constant effort
Level 5 Leadership: Building Momentum Beyond Self
Drawing on Jim Collins' research, we help you build leadership momentum that continues beyond yourself.
What This Solves
Organisational success dependent on heroic individual effort
No systematic approach to developing future leaders
Momentum dies when key leaders leave
Can't scale beyond current leadership capacity
How It works
Build systematic leadership capacity that scales and endures - not through individual heroics, but through frameworks and infrastructure that outlast any single leader.
The Impact
Leadership momentum continues beyond yourself. Your organisation has built-incapacity for ongoing transformation.
The Spark Kindler Philosophy (Bernie Kelly)
Developed by Bernie Kelly. The most transformative leaders don't just solve their own challenges - they kindle sparks that ignite change through out their entire ecosystem.
What This Solves
Individual impact limited to your own team
No systematic way to multiply leadership influence
Legacy depends on what you personally accomplish
Isolated problem-solving vs. ecosystem transformation
How It works
Create conditions for momentum that continues beyond yourself developing leaders who lift other leaders, creating ripple effects that transform industries and communities.
The Impact
Your transformation creates ripple effects. Individual impact becomes ecosystem transformation.

Organisations with $10M–$1B in operations, navigating the Care-Economic
Revolution where growth and care strengthen one another.
Is This You?
You're standing at the crossroads.
Your purpose still resonates, but your ways of working feel out of sync with the impact you're called to create next.
When you look, this is what you see:
Strategy is being rewritten, staff are signalling old ways aren't working
You're caught between growth and cost pressure and staying true to your mission
There's a deeper purpose rising but you haven't named it yet
When you look deeper, you see:
You're facing the fundamental choice: management led or purpose led?
Every decision reveals whether you're leading from constraint or possibility
The question isn't what to do…it's who you choose to be as a leader
This is the Recognition Phase. And what matters most here is courage to choose.
Every Purpose Leader Faces the Same Crossroads
Every purpose-led leader arrives at a moment where they must choose how to lead—not just what to do. It's a crossroads between staying in what's familiar or stepping into the deeper impact they're truly called to make.
Management or Purpose?
Will you lead through control and efficiency, or through mission and wisdom?
Constraint or Possibility?
Will you optimise within limitations, or transform them into opportunities?
Fear or Love?
Will you react from scarcity and protection, or respond from abundance and care?
The choice you make shapes everything that follows.
