Australian Strategic Services has a proven track record built over 30 years working with boards, chief executive officers and executives/senior teams of community businesses (Not-For-Profits). In this time we have assisted nearly 7,000 organisations with a wide range of strategic and organisational challenges. We invite you to get in contact with us to discuss how we can be of assistance.
We assist organisations to:
- develop powerful and practical strategies that position and grow organisations
- ensure their long term sustainability and their continued contribution to the clients they serve and the communities in which they operate
- put in place practical systems and tools that assist clients to undertake their work
- transform their organisation, re-engineering their business model and reinvent their culture
Why community businesses choose us
Your community business is a distinctive organisation, delivering services and products that matter to your members, clients and community. We understand that environment because we have spent three decades inside it: working with boards facing succession decisions, CEOs navigating mergers and amalgamations, senior teams reinventing service models, and organisations rebuilding strategy after major change.
The work has produced frameworks, models and tools, including The Australian Governance System, that have been refined across thousands of engagements and are still used in real boardrooms today.
