    Graduate School of Business Title STRATEGY TRANSFORMATION AND CHANGE: CHANGING PARADIGMS IN AUSTRALIAN CATHOLIC HEALTH AND AGED CARE John Joseph Ryan This thesis is presented as part of the requirements for the award of the Degree of Doctor of Business Administration of the Curtin University of Technology August, 2001 VOLUME 0NE Declaration This thesis is my own work. No part has been submitted for a degree at this or any other university. 2 Acknowledgements Firstly, to my family, thank you for your help and patience. A message to my wife, who put up with a great deal and who typed all of the transcripts: Parkes, my darling, it can only get better from now on! A list of acknowledgements always runs the risk of omitting people whose help and influence have been crucial, or the risk of being boringly long. Unlike the thesis itself, these acknowledgements will risk omissions in the interest of being short. My apologies to those people unfairly omitted. Ivor Davies, of St. John of God Health Care, gave me the idea to research Integration 2000. Francis Sullivan and his staff at Catholic Health Australia made the project possible, invited me to two National Conferences, guided me in setting up the sample and made themselves and their records available on several trips to Canberra. Bruce Callaghan, the consultant who helped the peak body to initiate the process, made his office files available, in his absence, and participated with Francis Sullivan in giving me a preliminary briefing at Sydney Airport. All of the respondents to this research gave freely of their insights and their time, often at considerable personal inconvenience.

  • Venerable Mother Maria Kaupas, SSC
    Venerable Mother Maria Kaupas, SSC Our first group of inductees are members of the Sisters of St. Casimir, who founded Villa Joseph Marie High School in 1932 and operated our school into the 21st century. They continue to sponsor Villa Joseph Marie today, and have educated, influenced, and inspired thousands of Villa Alumnae through their commitment to faith, service, community, and the intellectual development of young women. It is only fitting that the Charter Member of our new Wall of Fame is Venerable Mother Maria Kaupas, the Foundress of the Sisters of St. Casimir and of Villa Joseph Marie High School. Mother Maria was a woman of extraordinary faith and courage. Born Casimira Kaupas in Lithuania in 1880, she immigrated to the U.S. as a teenager at the request of her brother, the pastor of a Lithuanian parish in Scranton, Pa. While she served as his housekeeper, she met Sisters for the first time and was attracted to the religious life. When she told her brother of her intent to enter a congregation, he informed her that the American Lithuanian clergy sought to establish an order of women religious for the purposes of educating youth and helping preserve Lithuanian language and customs. Casimira agreed to lead this new venture. She spent several years in preparation overseas, while seeking sponsorship in the U.S. Ultimately, Bishop John Shanahan of Harrisburg agreed to sponsor the congregation in Pennsylvania, and on August 29, 1907, the Congregation of the Sisters of St. Casimir was founded. Casimira desired that the new congregation would be named after the Blessed Mother, but Bishop Shanahan recommended that it be called the Sisters of St.

  • Annual Report
    Catherine McAuley Center for women & children experiencing homelessness ANNUAL REPORT July 2019-June 2020 The Legacy of Catherine McAuley Born into a wealthy family in Dublin, Ireland, Catherine McAuley’s comfortable early life turned upside down when her father died in 1783. She was only five years old. Catherine’s mother managed to maintain a home of relative affluence for her three children by slowly selling off parcels of land, but she too would pass in 1798. Catherine went to live at first with an impoverished uncle and later cousins with whom Catherine clashed over religious convictions. When her mother’s wealthy relatives William and Catherine Callaghan returned from India in 1803, Catherine gladly moved in to manage their elegant home. She lived there for nearly 20 years, providing religious instructions to the Catholic servants and village children and helping the less-privileged in the community find resources to improve their lives. When William Callaghan passed in 1822, he named Catherine McAuley as his sole heir. She used her inheritance to establish a ‘House of Mercy’ on Baggot Street in September 1827. There, she and several companions provided food, clothing, housing, medical care, and education for many of Dublin’s poor women and young girls. Initially, Catherine distinguished herself from nuns and their convents, but in time she came to realize that in order for her work to continue, the House of Mercy would need to become a convent. In 1831, with the approval of Archbishop Daniel Murray, the congregation of Sisters of Mercy was founded. The Baggot Street house served as its first convent.

When a 7th Sunday of Easter believer realizes without doubt that God is love, it is a powerful moment. Being able to place our resurrection trust in this fundamental truth allows us to experience God’s presence in all of our experiences: the good and the bad, positive and negative, life enriching and destructive events we encounter. It is no wonder that St. Paul so accurately tells us that it is love that endures all things and lasts. How can God not endure or ever fade away? Because he is God, Jesus also guarded and protected his disciples as the endearing shepherd who always had their best in- terest at heart. If we become too immersed in the world, we Lifting up his eyes to heaven, Jesus prayed lose touch with these deeper realities. We can saying: “As you sent me into the world, so I become so preoccupied with preserving what we have created or think that we need, forgetting that sent them into the world. And I consecrate it is not building our city that really matters, but myself for them, so that they also may be God’s. Jesus clearly did not belong to the world consecrated in truth.” -Jn 17:18-19 and, by virtue of his resurrection, he tries to get us to understand that we do not either.
