Advice
Gongan can help government and business build and strengthen relationships and partnerships with Indigenous organisations and communities through providing advice on how to approach Indigenous communities; methods of communication; understanding the sensitivities that can lead to conflict and providing strategies for conflict resolution; providing insights to different cultural views and attitudes; and using cultural and economic management models to improve outcomes.
Gongan has developed unique models that help explain how Indigenous cultural and spiritual beliefs can have an impact on the outcome of a project. The models also explain how different approaches to communicating with Indigenous people will result in better outcomes for all involved.

Consulatation Services
Gongan provides consultation services to help Government and private business consult and liaise with Indigenous people, communities and organisations, for better outcomes.
Rod Williams has the knowledge and experience to communicate complicated industry and business concepts to people who have limited understanding of these matters. He can also explain Indigenous groups’ cultural views and concerns to non-Indigenous businesses. This two-way communication and understanding opens the door for honest and open communication and long-term business relationships.
Workshops
Managing Director, Rod Williams, uses his expertise and experience to run workshops for different clients including:
- workshops to help Indigenous business partners become business-ready
- tailored cultural diversity workshops for government and business
- planning and facilitating workshops and conferences, particularly those encompassing Indigenous business, issues and culture
Business Planning for Indigenous Organisations
When developing strategic business plans with an Indigenous organisation, Rod’s unique approach involves considering both the business and Indigenous cultural perspective so the plans focus on the “cultural fit” and the “corporate fit” for the client. The plan is embraced by the entire organisation, from the board to the staff, because it reflects the organisation’s economic and cultural aspirations. This approach also helps Indigenous organisations gain an understanding of the importance of having a plan that has a holistic approach to management.
