Preparing for Nomination

This book is strongly recommended to those considering standing for the Board of Bicycle Network Victoria.

The book is the result of solid research into effective not for profit organisations in the United States.

The book is available from the authors' website and other booksellers.

To quote the authors:

What the authors discovered after closely examining these high-impact nonprofits came as a surprise. They initially assumed that there was something inherent to these organizations that led to great impact—and that success was directly tied to organizational growth or management. Instead, they learned that becoming a high-impact nonprofit is not just about building a great organization, and then expanding it to reach more people. Rather, high-impact nonprofits work with and through other organizations and individuals to create more impact than they could have ever achieved alone.

High-impact nonprofits build social movements and fields; they transform business, government, other nonprofits, and individuals; and they change the world around them. In the end, six patterns crystallized into the form presented here ”the six practices that high-impact nonprofits use to achieve extraordinary impact.

These nonprofits:

- Work with government and advocate for policy change
- Harness market forces and see business as a powerful partner
- Convert individual supporters into evangelists for the cause
- Build and nurture nonprofit networks, treating other groups as allies
- Adapt to the changing environment
- Share leadership, empowering others to be forces for good

In addition, high-impact nonprofits have also mastered the basics needed to sustain their impact: attracting and retaining great people; finding sustainable sources of funding; and investing in their infrastructure and capacity.

To read more about, and understand each of these six practices, we encourage you to buy the book. In it you’ll find a much more detailed description of each practice, along with compelling examples of how the 12 high-impact nonprofits employ them in order to have more impact. Each chapter also includes tips for beginning to implement the practice in your own organization.

I enjoy cycling. It’s social, fun, and sometimes a way I get to work. Over about 15 years, riding has made me much fitter; but I also enjoy a beer, tennis, hiking, swimming, and playing bad golf.
I’d like cycling to be safer, so more people are prepared to ride.

2. Motivation to stand for the Bicycle Network Victoria Board, including what you will bring if you are elected

I’ve spent over 30 years in professional accounting, in banking, and in finance roles - including US and UK acquisition work, complex problem solving, managing the NAB’s business deposit book, and as the CFO of two key NAB divisions, and the Tasmanian Tote. During that time I’ve been on many Boards, Committees and working teams.
While at uni, I was the Treasurer of the Victorian Young Variety club, raising money and granting some fantastic wishes for sick kids. When my kids started at school, I was on their School Council, and we built a hall. And I’ve worked on several other not for profit boards, including in the US, raising the profile of housing needs for Latin American countries.

Melbourne is a great place to ride. I’m lucky to have met some fantastic people out cycling, and enjoy the rides and their company.
I’ve also spent a lot of time overseas. And I love the relaxed and integrated way some European cities treat their riding commuters. Some of that would be great to copy.

5) Neil Baird-Watson

1. Personal statement

• Strong change advocate - cycling safety is paramount.
• Integrate cycling with transport and urban design policy.
• Motorist /Cyclists education.
• Increase participation promotes positive health outcomes.
• Enabling initiatives - “bicycling boulevards”, re-instate “Bike Budget”.
• Trustee advisor - “not for profit”, investment, risk.
• 20+ years Director experience - growth strategies, finance, marketing.
• Ride 1,000+km/ month

2. Motivation to stand for the Bicycle Network Victoria Board, including what you will bring to the Board if you are elected.

I’m inspired by BNV’s vision of “More People Cycling More Often” and very positive about the prospect of the growth in participation. There are challenges to be overcome around “cycling safety” whilst the “health” benefits are huge.
I motivated to promote the concept of “Bicycle Boulevards” where road cyclists are separated and fully protected. Mothers, children and retirees should be able to ride to the local school and shops without fear of injury. Commuters need arterial, fully connected, safe lanes and paths. Recreational riders need to be the beneficiaries of intelligent road design. Education forms an important part of change management with motorists, cyclists and the general public all needing to be part of the conversation and integrated solution. Laws need to reflect the seriousness of sharing the road when things go wrong.
As a five day a week cyclist I come face to face with these realities first hand and I seek to contribute; new ideas, strategic thinking and oversight to the BNV organisation in pursuit of getting “more people cycling more often”.

I will advocate the following as a Bicycle Network Victoria board member:
Champion continued integration of cycling into State government transport policy.
Pursue stronger co-ordination and co-operation between local councils on cycling issues.
Encourage Health benefits of Cycling across the community.
Improved education around safety programs for cyclists, motorists and the general public.
Ensure policy positions and issue management be based on research data and benchmarks established and monitored to evaluate programme effectiveness.
Elevate the key issues including; road design and infrastructure, bicycle boulevards, bike lanes and paths and infrastructure projects.

I’m well qualified for the role because:
I ride most mornings in a bunch, ride long on weekends, riding 9th GVBR in 2012, occasionally commute to work, enjoy endurance events, especially hills and have held a racing licence.
Previously involved as an importer of cycling equipment.
Large network among cyclists and business associates.

Experience serving on a “not for profit” boards:
Charity board trustee advising on project investments, commercial issues and governance.
Involved in a number of school associations and committees

3. Previous Experience on Boards / Committees

4. Board governance qualifications and experience or any other relevant qualifications and experience

Master of Business Administration (MBA), Graduate School of Management, Macquarie University, 1991.
Graduate Diploma of Business (Marketing), Chisholm Institute of Technology / Monash University, 1990.

5. Previous experience in setting and guiding an organisation’s strategic direction.

I have worked as a management and marketing consultant assisting a range of organisations set strategic direction. I have led focus groups and market research projects to explore and define various strategic and positioning options.
During the 1990’s I guided several high growth companies to capitalise on market opportunities in the finance, telecommunications and convergent technologies sectors.
I’m a board trustee of a research charity charged with donating funds to further research and education in a range of projects, currently supporting a University of Sydney project initiative.

6. Current employment

Kyocera Document Solutions, State Manager, Victoria / Tasmania

7. Optional additional statement

I believe that riding a bicycle, whether it be for recreation or transport can and does make a huge difference to so many people in so many ways. I seek to represent Bicycle Network Victoria (BNV) members on the board to further these societal aims and assist in overcoming the significant challenges facing BNV in its quest to expand the bicycle network.
Bicycle Network Victoria has done much to improve many aspects of road cycling safety but I’m motivated to ensure that much more is achieved. Strong representation is required to re-instate the “Bike Budget” enabling cycling infrastructure to be expanded and integrated with urban planning. Cycling mobility within the local communities needs to be expanded and interconnected throughout the suburbs. Connecting Local councils should be collaborating and planning now.
I personally have a passion for cycling, some say an obsession. I have participated in numerous events over many years including; Around The Bay 200 & 250, High Country Challenge, last 8 Great Victorian Bike Rides, Audax Alpine Classic 200, Amy’s Ride, St Kilda Cycling Club and Caulfield Carnegie Cycling Club Criteriums.
I actively seek out understandings and information about how international organisations are integrating cycling within the community; Cycling Embassy of Demark, CA Cycling coalition, Biking Rules and Bicycle Oregon to name a few. I’m contactable on twitter: @neil_bike_wheel

If elected to the board I will assist and support BNV in;
• Improving safety, support and resources for all cyclists
• Expanding its membership base and event participation
• Lobbying and communicating at all levels of government
• Foster innovative bike friendly urban planning decisions
• Expanding and adding value to members benefits
• Connecting and collaborating between bicycle network entities
• Developing of bike boulevards, lanes, paths and trails
• Changing behaviours regarding health, fitness and the environment

Imagine…
I can imagine a future where; local communities are interconnected by a myriad of protected bike boulevards, paths, tracks and lanes – where seniors park their bikes outside the local shops in dedicated areas, where car drivers refuse to text, talk or twitter on their devices as they drive, where arterial bike lanes are 3m wide and segregated, where mothers ride with their kids to their local schools on designated family friendly road infrastructure, where bike commuters can claim a 100% tax deduction on equipment and attract carbon tax credits, where popular cycling roads gain priority status during heavy use times ………

6) Gordon Oakley

1. Personal Statement

Aside from my passion for cycling, my credentials are in my desire to strike the right balance across all forms of mobility. While cycling has obvious community benefits, it is important to manage perceptions that Victorians have in relation to cycling and to improve relationships with all stakeholders.

2. Motivation to stand for the Bicycle Network Victoria Board, including what you will bring to the Board if you are elected.

I am extremely excited about the prospect of continuing the great work that BNV has done in its advocacy for cycling. I believe I bring a strong commercial aptitude, excellent strategic skills, a commitment to the cause – as well as clear understanding of the BNV vision as it relates to the mobility agenda in Victoria.

3. Previous Experience on Boards / Committees

4. Board governance qualifications and experience or any other relevant qualifications and experience.

My involvement in the RACV Executive Committee for the past five and a half years has seen me involved in setting the strategic direction for the organisation across all disciplines: People, Product Strategy, Policy Development and Risk Management. I have been a strong contributor to the key agenda items for the RACV over that period.
Strong academic platform (Bachelor of Science, Diploma in Education, Diploma in Computing and Masters in Business Administration) have underpinned my professional career development. In addition, I have attended the Senior Executive Program at the London Business School to further enhance my leadership attributes.

5. Previous experience in setting and guiding an organisation’s strategic direction.

As a senior executive at Spotless Services and at Ansett I had carriage for the development of the organisation’s strategic direction during my time there, including new product and channel development.
In my current role, I am accountable for the development and implementation of the organisation’s mobility agenda. In strategic sense, I have been a key architect of the organisation’s growing commitment to the cycling movement (refer attached Royal Auto).
In addition, I was responsible for RACV’s involvement in the RACV Great Victorian Bike Ride as well as winning the tender – and operating – Melbourne Bike Share. My Department is also currently working on a number of cycling-related products and services, including bike inspections, bike safety checks and safe riding programs.
On a smaller – but important - scale; I have also cajoled my colleagues to ride to work and get more involved in riding with the RACV team on weekends. One measure of the success of this activity has been the growth in the size of the RACV Around the Bay team from around 30 riders several years ago to 60 in 2012.

6. Current employment

General Manager, Motoring and Mobility, RACV

7. Optional additional statement

I recognize that BNV has a large number of supporters in the Victorian community. Not surprisingly, there are also detractors. Of concern is the fact that a number of the detractors are Victorians who are passionate about cycling.
I believe BNV has the potential to unite Victorian cyclists, not necessarily in a militant fashion, but in order that we can have a clearer voice on matters of relevance, such as infrastructure, speed limits and fostering agendas such as congestion, health and fitness, and sustainability.
These are important stories to tell.
