Introduction Buckett’s Way Neighbourhood Group Incorporated (BWNG) is a not-for-profit, incorporated community organisation formed in 1989 to provide a variety of community services to people in the locality of Gloucester Local Government area and the area known as the Buckett’s Way Strip.
BWNG is governed by a volunteer Management Committee, which is voted in at the AGM by the members of the organisation. BWNG is managed by a Manager.
BWNG delivers many different services, which have varied sources of funding from the Federal and State Governments. Services include disability services; aged care services; personal support (Neighbourhood Centre), employment services (Centrelink agency) and training. BWNG employs Coordinators and staff and maintains a pool of volunteers to deliver these services, programs and projects.
BWNG owns and operates out of buildings at 14 Queen Street, Gloucester; The Cottage at 40 Tyrrell St; and rental of other properties.
Background BWNG previously engaged in strategic planning in 2007, with a planning horizon of three years. In 2011 BWNG undertook to review and plan for the next few years of operation. The Management Committee, management and staff engaged in a strategic planning process in August 2011, to plan for BWNG’s future to 2015.
The process of Strategic Planning for 2011-2015 included:
� A Review of BWNG’s Values by staff and Management Committee
� Client satisfaction surveys
� Strategic Planning over two half-days, involving BWNG Managers and Coordinators, key staff and some Board of Management members.
This Strategic Planning document reports the outcomes of the review, planning and decisions made by BWNG on the Key Result Areas, Goals and Strategies that BWNG will focus on over the next four years. A Strategic and Operational Plan is presented in table format, with personnel and timeframes to be added by staff. The Appendix contains results and reports on the Values Review and Client Satisfaction Surveys, as well as notes from the Strategic Planning Days.

Values A review of BWNG’s Values was undertaken by staff and Management Committee members with the aim of identifying the common Values held by BWNG and describing characteristics and behaviours that they would commit to and display for BWNG to fulfil its vision and mission.

Presented on Strategic Planning Day 1: 23 August 2011 As part of BWNG’s Strategic Planning for 2011-2015, a review was conducted of the BWNG Values. The aim was to identify the common Values held by BWNG (i.e. what BWNG stands for; the qualities that are held to be most important at BWNG). A worksheet was sent to BWNG Staff and Management Committee members to give them the opportunity to consider the Values listed in the previous BWNG Strategic Plan (2007-2010). Participants were asked to choose the most important Values and describe the characteristics and behaviours that people who work at BWNG might commit to and display for each of these Values. The intention is to have specific statements to help staff, service users and the community better understand the intended meaning of BWNG’s Values. Responses were received from 10 staff members. Their responses were collated and are reported below. Top Values
