Val will be speaking at the National SIL Summit 2026, alongside industry experts and thought leaders from across the NDIS sector.
Val's Keynote:
🎤 Session: Systems Literacy
📅 25 September 2026
Behind every problem in your business is a need; systems literacy is how you understand these needs.
In this practical workshop, Val will explore three essential systems thinking concepts:
🔹 Visibility – Know what's happening across your operations.
🔹 Delegation – Transfer ownership, not just tasks.
🔹 Automation – Understand where technology genuinely adds value.
