About Us
Pathways Australia has been providing management advice and support for not-for-profit (for purpose) organisations like yours since 2001.
Pathways Australia is the most experienced not-for-profit management and advisory consultancy in Australia. You won’t find a more passionate group of people than the Pathways Australia team… because we truly believe that community service organisations make a positive difference to our planet and we want to help you to do that. It doesn’t matter what your mission is, your size or your location, we have the knowledge, expertise and solutions to help. And that’s why… Our Mission is to help you achieve yours!
We are widely acknowledged as the leading provider of leadership and management advice and support for Australia’s community service organisations. Whether you need assistance with an organisational review, strategic planning, governance, human resources management or management training, we can support you … and at a price you can afford.
Our consultants are highly qualified, but perhaps even more importantly they all have significant experience in working for and with community service organisations. We know what challenges you face and we can help you meet them.
