WhyVery few organizations know WHY they do what they do. WHY is not about making money. That’s a result. It’s a purpose, cause or belief. It’s the very reason your organization exists.

KIDS OUTDOORS 2030
Tallebudgera Beach Outdoor Education School• A key questions that have been asked by my colleagues in the Outdoor &
Environmental Education Centre Sector was “Did I come to the Dark Side or Did I see the Light?
• On my first day at this site the staff at Tallebudgera Beach School asked me to review their pedagogical framework, curriculum and strategic direction
• My reply was a question “Tell me why you come to work each day and what do you
hope to achieve?”
• There was no consistent, clearly articulated answer but there was obvious passion for what they did.
• However, in my conversations there were plenty of clues!

learning • The “What” will follow - roles, tasks and purpose• Be authentic to the “Place” (environment) it will give
you clues• Constantly apply the “celery test” (Simon Sinek)
