25.01.2022 in times of crisis, good leaders rally to nurture and protect their flock. Great Leaders with vision go beyond their own national boundaries and unite the world fostering global partnerships to work towards the common good. My research published today titled GRID Index: Tracking the Global Leadership Response in the COVID-19 Crisis by the Institute of Certified Management Accountants (Australia). The GRID index is designed to rank how efficiently and effectively the lea...dership of the country and the preparedness of its health system were in tackling the COVID-19 pandemic Leadership is a responsibility. It’s not about being in charge. It’s about taking care of those in your charge. -Simon Sinek Never has good leadership been more critical and relevant in our lifetime than today as countries around the world struggle to fight the COVID-19 crisis. In times of crisis, good leaders rally to nurture and protect their flock. Great Leaders with vision go beyond their own national boundaries and unite the world fostering global partnerships to work towards the common good. However, as we struggle against an unprecedented pandemic sweeping through our world, our leaders are tackling this global crisis in very different and often controversial ways. The nature of this crisis demands global cooperation but requires action differing from nation to nation. Each country battling this crisis has very unique political, cultural, geographical and social dimensions. The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted each country in a different manner and consequently the measures taken by leaders of different countries have varied. However, it is said that difficult times bring out the best in great leaders and arguably shine the spotlight on deficiencies and shortcomings of other leaders. Inevitably among other things the success of a nation’s leader’s during this pandemic will be judged by how well they have cared for those in their charge. https://www.cmawebline.org//grid-index-tracking-the-globa/

20.01.2022 Prime Minister Scott Morrison has emerged as a very capable leader and displayed remarkable leadership qualities in this crisis. The year 2020 had not begun well for Australia with horrific bushfires and our national leadership (particularly the Prime Minister) coming under severe criticism. Just one month later, in a dramatic turnaround, much to his credit, the very same Prime Minister Scott Morrison significantly picked up his game and upped the ante showing outstanding lea...dership during the COVID-19 crisis. To start with, he created a national cabinet as a unique decision-making authority bringing together State Premiers of different political persuasions to work together on a common goal to overcome the crisis. He has also successfully overcome ideological differences with his opponents (in stark contrast to President Trump in USA); earning him the admiration of supporters and opponents alike. The result of this coordinated and carefully planned response to the pandemic is a dramatic downward trend in the number of new cases as well as active cases. https://www.medianet.com.au/releases/186307/

14.01.2022 Prof. Janek Ratnatunga, CEO, ICMA Australia takes you on a tour of the fifty shades of the new normal..... https://www.cmawebline.org//50-shades-of-new-normal-whipp/

09.01.2022 Professor Janek Ratnatunga makes the case for independent cost audits in an article titled The Case for Statutory Cost Audits: Qantas’ Dubious ‘Middle Seat’ Costings. He says that the federal government’s A$60B forecasting error in its JobKeeper subsidy, followed by Centrelink’s ‘Robo-Debt’ income averaging error requiring repayments of between $720m to $1.5 Billion, show that the implications of getting cost numbers wrong is staggering. Governments often make funding and ...other regulatory decisions to support various industries based on faulty cost information that are not subject to any statutory controls. These decisions can amount to millions of dollars of taxpayer funds. Faulty costings result in faulty strategic decision making in many business areas especially pricing and supply-chain management. Using the Qantas case as an example, it is demonstrated that governments need independent verification of costs and prices, in order to ensure sound regulatory oversight of companies that come to them lobbying for bailout funds, tax incentives, reduction of tariffs and the like. https://www.cmawebline.org//354-qantas-dubious-middle-seat

06.01.2022 While customer focus, employee focus and sustainability are the three key drivers ensuring corporate success post the GCC, it will require visionary leaders to navigate and drive these drivers through and beyond the crisis! Who are these visionary leaders and what does good leadership look like? My favorite quote on leadership is Leadership is a responsibility. It’s not about being in charge. It’s about taking care of those in your charge. -Simon Sinek. The key takeaway fro...m the quote is that leadership is about ‘taking care’ and in the context of visionary business leadership post GCC I would say the Visionary Business Leadership post GCC is taking responsibility for your employees, your customers and your environment. It’s about taking care of your employees, your customers and your environment. My article looks at all these three aspects of visionary business leadership.... https://www.cmawebline.org//visionary-leadership-driving-/

01.01.2022 Professor Janek Ratnatunga, CEO of the Institute of Certified Management Accountants (ICMA), makes the case in an article titled Funding Manufacturing Post COVID-19: A National Security Issue" that the $60b JobKeeper ‘windfall’ due to the a self-reporting error by 1000’s of Australian businesses will be best used to boost local manufacturing capabilities of essential items that consumers ran short of when the world’s international supply chains were severely disrupted. It is basically a national security issue he emphasised, it is vital that the Federal Government funds and supports incentives that will, Make Australia Make Again. For this reason, the ICMA has launched a #makeozmakeagain campaign on Twitter. https://www.cmawebline.org//funding-manufacturing-post-co/
