Answer: The qualities I possess which would make me a good manager includes various things like active listening, good communicate skills, being flexible and collaboration within the team members, and being able to solve difficult problems, building trust within team by supporting and understanding them. These traits are very crucial for getting multicultural teams to work together and for multicultural society as a whole. It is also important to have understanding and emotional well being. The manager I had in the past was motivating me to go forward by listening and helping me how to work in the future. To boost the team's energy and motivation, I also want to learn more about how to handle conflicts, decision making and creating a supportive environment.

Discussion forum

Answer: Community service organisations in Australia have a clear goal, strong leadership, and strong processes. Good leaders encourage people to work hard, make the workplace a good place to be, and make choices that are best for the company and its people. A well-run board makes sure that people are supervised and take responsibility. However, it can be difficult to keep these qualities because of a lack of money, new rules, and staff changes.

Week two

Reflectivity Activity

Answer: I would be a good fit for the board of Anglicare WA because it is a Western Australian organisation that was looked at. The people on the board members are skilled in many areas, such as business, law, social services, and keeping an eye on things. To uphold values like fairness, kindness, and respect, the organisations goal is to help people and families. My skills in strategy planning and managing human resources will help with long-term planning, risk management, and making sure that the organisation's resources are aligned with its goals if I join the board.

Discussion forum

Answer: Australia has a system of government that makes groups rely on the board of directors, which is important for how well they are run and managed. Board members are in charge of the organisation's actions and also decide its long-term goals and make sure its money is handled correctly. To be a charitable trustee and stay true to the goal, board members need to know a lot about the nonprofit sector and what the community needs. CEOs of nonprofits need to focus on social impact, stakeholder involvement, and ethical leadership to build trust, get people to work together, and help the group reach its goal.

Week three

Reflective activity

Answer: I choose the Former New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern who is known for the open, caring, and collaborative way and she led her country as a democratic leader. Her every success comes from how well she communicates, makes good decisions, and involves stakeholders as well. Ardern's style of leadership is different from authoritarian ones because she is emotionally intelligent, strongly supports social justice, and can help others make decisions while also understanding their feelings.

Discussion forum

Answer: I can identify specific leadership traits for charity CEOs in non profit sector such as empathy, openness, and getting people to work together. CEOs of nonprofits, unlike CEOs of for-profit businesses, have to balance mission-driven goals with limited resources and the needs of stakeholders.

Week 4

Reflective activity

Answer: The Australian Asylum Seeker Resource Centre is run by people who are very enthusiastic about human rights and social justice. Its goal is to make the lives of asylum seekers and refugees better. To get people more motivated, the centre encourages a culture of praise, provides chances for professional growth, and stresses the link between daily tasks and the organisation's purpose. Both official and unofficial rewards help keep people from getting burned out.

Discussion forum

Answer: Though Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs and Herzberg's Two-Factor Theory are older theories of motivation, newer theories like self-determination and goal-setting focus on liberty, competence, and relatedness. Australia's community service groups can improve employee engagement and success by combining these theories.

Week 5

Discussion forum

Answer: In Australia, confirmation bias and groupthink make it challenging for community service groups to make decisions. To get rid of these biases, businesses should promote diversity, open conversation, and organised ways to make decisions. By recognising and getting rid of these flaws, we can make things fairer for clients and communities.

Improving measures of patient safety is essential for success and will lead to better care. The plan shows that the agency is dedicated to always getting better by putting an emphasis on communication, responsibility, and patient safety.

Discussion forum

Answer: Some community service groups, like The Smith Family in Australia, do a better job of ending poverty through education. This is because they have a clear vision, purpose, and set of beliefs. However, these traits may not remain as secure when changes occur in community needs, finances, or leadership. For businesses to be successful in the long run, they need to be able to change and reaffirm their commitment to core values.
