ABOUT
I’m Rebecca Brissett. I work with leaders and organisations navigating complexity,
change and decisions that carry real consequences for people.
Much of my expertise sits within the NDIS, particularly Home and Living, SIL, service viability and the translation of policy into workable practice. I also work across adjacent human and community services, where organisations face similar questions of reform, sustainability, governance and service quality.
My experience spans frontline disability support, team and operational management, executive leadership, consulting and sector education. I speak the languages of business, finance and operations, while keeping participant experience and outcomes firmly in view.
I help organisations understand how decisions in one part of a system affect the others. and find approaches that are principled, practical and sustainable.
I have designed and delivered hundreds of workshops, webinars and capability programs for boards, executives, managers and national sector audiences. My approach is conversational and practical: I make complex material understandable without stripping away the nuance that matters.
My formal qualifications include a Master of Business Administration, a Bachelor of Arts, an Advanced Diploma of Management and an Advanced Diploma of Disability.
HOW I WORK
Strong decisions take account of people, practice, operations and sustainability at the same time.
I have led operational and multidisciplinary teams, supported executives and guided organisations through NDIS transition, service reform and significant organisational change.
I understand the commercial and operational realities of delivering services, and help organisations connect financial sustainability with quality, practice and participant outcomes.
I support providers with registration, audit readiness, gap analysis, governance, policies and practical alignment with the NDIS Practice Standards.
I have designed and delivered hundreds of workshops, webinars, conference sessions and capability programs for boards, executives, managers and national sector audiences.
A NOTE ABOUT AI AND ACCESSIBILITY
I use artificial intelligence to assist with aspects of drafting, editing and organising written material.
As a neurodivergent person, I often hold an idea in considerable depth before I can express it in a clear, linear form. AI can help me externalise that thinking: arranging material, identifying repetition, testing alternative wording and showing me where a reader may need more context. It does not supply the professional experience, ethical position or underlying argument. It helps me make those things more communicable.
Everything published under my name is reviewed and shaped by me. I decide what the work says, verify substantive claims and take responsibility for the final content. I do not treat AI output as evidence or professional advice, and I do not knowingly enter identifiable or confidential information into general-purpose AI tools.
I am open about this because accessibility does not only mean changing the final format for a reader. It can also mean using tools that enable a person to develop and communicate their own work.
AI assistance does not make the thinking less mine. Used responsibly, it helps more of that thinking become visible.
START A CONVERSATION
If your organisation is navigating change, reform or a decision that needs
careful thought, I’d be glad to hear what you’re working through.
