We are extremely happy with the process CBA led us through to develop Ambrose Treacy College’s 2024-2028 Strategic Plan.

Our partnership with Community Business Australia over a number of years has assisted Crowley’s Board and Management in developing our governance processes and systems.

Congratulations to you all for your very professional support, it was a pleasure to work with you all.

An extremely successful transition thanks to Community Business Australia. Their trusted guidance and support gave us – a small regional community provider – the confidence and resources to see this decision through.

Community Business Australia has assisted Centacare in facilitating its Strategic Planning process across a number of areas of service delivery. Their pragmatic yet thought provoking style has allowed management to develop plans they feel they have contributed to and can be achieved.

The approach of Patrick, Pam, and Lynne was exceptional. I think that has been a remarkable success to have the amount of consultation that could occur and to have the voices of so many being shaped into a document that for the bishops to unreservedly take each of the recommendation is testament to the work that has occurred.

We would like to reiterate our appreciation for the governance workshop session. Not only was it informative, but it was also suited to the room and everyone walked away better for it.
