Managing Culture

Culture will do what culture will do, if you don't manage it, it will manage you.

Everyone is talking about culture. Why? Because it has everything to do with long term organisational success. It is the ‘secret sauce’ that is unique to an organisation, not easily replicated by others. So what does the research say about how to ensure your organisation has the ‘right’ kind of culture? We will explore this through a valid and reliable model of culture (the Human Synergistics Circumplex) and we will specifically consider:

• The definition of culture and discuss what it is and what it isn't

• What happens if you don't manage culture

• The ‘ideal’ culture in the Australian context

• The ‘ideal’ culture for your organisation – what is unique to you

• Tips and strategies for achieving your ideal culture

This interactive session will enable participants to better understand organisational culture - what causes it, what levers to pull to manage it and the impact that culture has on organisational success. Participants will share their own experiences of culture and the strategies and enablers that have proven to work for them in managing and/or affecting culture.

​Partnering with DFP was an incredibly positive experience. From the outset, they were proactive, professional and took the time to understand my background and career aspirations as a leader within the Mental Health sector. What truly impressed me was their insight into the healthcare sector and their strong connections with reputable employers, particularly within the Federal Government space. DFP not only helped me secure a role with long term potential but also provided a level of service that made the entire process stress free and rewarding. I highly recommend them to any clinician seeking meaningful and impactful work.

Maggie, Candidate

​DFP has been a reliable and professional partner in supporting our workforce needs. As a Federal Government agency delivering critical mental health services, it is essential that we have access to highly qualified, adaptable and dependable staff. DFP has consistently delivered on this requirement, providing us with highly suitable labour hire candidates who are not only clinically skilled but also aligned with the values required for our clients. They are responsive, reliable and we look forward to continuing our partnership.

Ben, Client

​Mel is an absolute pleasure to work with and provided us with an array of highly skilled Mental Health Clinicians and personable candidates. I cannot recommend Mel and DFP more highly.

Gail, Client

From the very first contact, Mel at DFP Health made me feel at ease. She took the time to understand not only my professional skills but also my passion for Indigenous mental health. Mel supported me every step of the way. Her genuine care, encouragement and personal touches made what could have been a daunting process feel supportive and empowering. Thanks to DFP, I have found a role that is a perfect match for my values and skills.

Ashleigh, Candidate

​We have used DFP services three times now over the past few months and I couldn't be more satisfied with the service provided each time. Thank you.

Elizabeth, Client

​From the very beginning, my DFP Consultant Mel was extremely helpful and always available to answer any question I had throughout the recruitment process. I received regular updates, often without even needing to ask, and felt genuinely cared for as an individual.
