It’s Complicated

 

Why Faith-Inspired Cause Driven Organisations are so complex and what to do about it

Untangling the Maze: Mastering complexity in Faith-Inspired organisations

Faith-Inspired Cause-Driven Organisations (FICDOs) make a profound yet often unnoticed impact. They employ hundreds of thousands and serve millions daily, shaping communities and changing lives.

But all is not well. These organisations may seem straightforward, but their complexity runs deep. Too often, this leads to dysfunction—making work frustrating, draining, and unsustainable. And when an organisation struggles internally, its mission suffers.

How do we create better FICDOs?

The first step is understanding what makes them complex. Next, we must recognise that traditional corporate best practices often don’t work in FICDO contexts. Instead of forcing ill-fitting models, we need fresh approaches—ones that embrace their unique challenges and empower them to thrive in their mission.

Taking Care of Business

Business is immensely rewarding yet extremely tough, rather like parenting. My purpose in writing this book is to encourage you that you are not alone in your daily struggles and the various challenges you encounter.

Our business began to provide us the flexibility needed to work around our young family, and twenty years later it has matured into adulthood. This didn’t happen without the inevitable growth spurts and pains, triumphs and tantrums, highs and lows.

I hope that some of the twenty lessons I’ve shared will motivate you on your own journey, and help you to enjoy the adventure of business more daily.

George

George tells the life story of George T Tilston, who experienced his fair share of trouble and sorrow in his first threescore and ten years: two world wars, a great depression and a deep recession to name a few.

On the verge of reaching his seventieth birthday he did ‘fly away’ – not off the perch exactly, but off to Perth in Western Australia – propelled by the love for his family and the promise of a new beginning.

A Compendium of Hazard and Risk Knowledge + HSE Terminology

An indispensable resource for anyone who needs to know the vital terms used by HSE practitioners when communicating occupational health, safety and environment issues.

That liquid spill on your factory floor – is it an incident, an accident or a hazardous event? The question might seem a bit nonsensical but each of these terms has a very specific meaning in the fi eld of health, safety and environment (HSE).

Mastering the specific terminology or jargon is key to HSE, like any area of business. In the case of HSE, however, knowing the exact meaning of terms is particularly critical because confusion over terminology can, and does, lead to dangerous situations and accidents. This is partly because many of the terms have generic wider meanings in addition to their specific HSE meaning, as suggested above, for example ‘incident’, ‘accident’, ‘event’, ‘hazard’ and even ‘bowtie’. These all have very specific meanings and if all parties aren’t using them in the same way then it’s harder to manage or even describe a potentially dangerous situation.

This alphabetical guide describes many key terms in the HSE fi eld clearly and concisely, to make sure there’s no doubt what they mean. It’s written in English that’s easy for everyone to understand because in this area there’s no room for confusion or ambiguity.
