An Embedded Longitudinal Case Study of Governance Uptake Following a Pro Bono Consultancy Engagement
A paper from the School of Emergent Priorities embeds with a volunteer primary-school tuckshop for the first four terms of a consultancy-delivered strategic plan, logging every volunteer hour against counter service, food preparation, and plan administration. Total hours hold steady while administration's share rises from 4.2 to 31.6 per cent, the plan's indicator set grows from fourteen to twenty-one with none retired, and the parents' association closes the window by resolving on a plan refresh.
