What happens when rules are weak and poorly inforced? | What happens when rules are strong and enforced |
Governance is less effective and conflict increases | Decision making is more transparent, winning support from members and staff |
Leaders might be encouraged to be greedy and self-interested | Everyone wants to invest their time, effort and resources |
Private and public agencies won’t want to invest in economic growth steps | Strong rules inspire high morale and in staff and directors |
Staff and members are confused and have low morale | Economic growth is strong |
The organisation may be open to bad external influences, conflict and financial instability | Communities can manage and deliver local programs and services, free from political interference |
Community development wont happen | Communities have more trust in organisations and leaders |
The credibility of organisations and leaders is raised< | |
Organisations can create strong partnerships with governments |
Examples of what happens when rules re week/poorly enforced and when they are strongly enforced.
