Assessment task 3

Task description

The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) represents a fundamental change to how supports for people with disability are funded and delivered across Australia. The NDIS has potential to produce major benefits for people with disability, their families, and the broader community, but it also holds some potential risks.

An NDIS Quality and Safeguarding Framework was developed in 2016 with the vision to ensure effective safeguards and high-quality supports in the NDIS.

After 6 years of operation the framework is to be reviewed as part of the Independent Review of the NDIS.

   1. What role should the Framework play going forward?

Assessment Task 4

Task description

"Changing public service systems inevitably meant getting into the details of delivery and performance management in a radically more granular way" (Blair, 2010, p.338). This quote by Tony Blair makes us consider what the role of a leader is. Leaders have to set policy and strategic direction; see it is followed; get data on whether it is; and measure outcomes.

Using an academic essay format respond to the following questions;

1. How is it possible for leaders to see that their strategy is being followed?
2. How does the strategic management process help senior managers?
3. How can the processes of review and evaluation be managed as a core part of strategic management?

Draw on all the materials you have studied in modules 1-4 to answer the questions.

Finally, critically reflect on how you would apply the knowledge and skills you have developed in this unit to your own workplace and professional practice. Reference Blair, T. (2010). A Journey. Random House Group.
