Kyeongseon Jang	Professor Adela McMurray & Dr Ann-Louise Hordacre & Tim van Erp	Organisational Dynamic Capability for Innovation Waves in the Australian Heavy Industry	This thesis investigated the organisational capabilities required for technology driven innovation in the Australian heavy industry, focusing on innovation waves (digital transformation, Industry 4.0 and 5.0). The thesis identified 10 sensing, seizing, and reconfiguring capabilities, and their 41 attributes, along with 25 interrelationships. Significant findings highlight that reconfiguring capabilities, particularly leadership, communication, and cultural transformation, are more crucial than sensing and seizing capabilities. Sector specific differences reveal unique innovative characteristics shaped by priorities and external pressures. The thesis contributes to the body of knowledge by providing a framework for understanding organisational dynamic capabilities in the context of the innovation waves, revealing the interrelated nature of these capabilities, and identifying the context specific boundaries of organisational dynamic capabilities. The thesis concludes by recommending policymakers enhance strategic planning, foster knowledge sharing, support value recognition strategies, and promote skill transformation to ensure sustained competitiveness and growth in the Australian heavy industry.
Graeme Keith Mitchell	Professor Adela McMurray & Dr Ashokkumar Manoharan & Dr Rajesh Johnsam	Arrogant leadership and innovative work behaviour in times of discontinuity	Arrogance is a frowned upon, usually insulting, behaviour as it unacceptably infers one person being superior to another. Despite the word arrogance being in our everyday lexicon, it is also confused with similar words such as overconfidence, pride, hubris and narcissism. Yet it is different. In leadership, arrogance has the potential to disrupt work relationships, job performance, well being and organisational outcomes, yet is more detrimental to the arrogant leader than to their target. The thesis was a study of leader arrogance in relation to the innovative work behaviour of employees, a behaviour that indicates employees are engaged, or not, with their leader. It is, the proverbial “canary in a coalmine”. The thesis reviewed 95 key papers and examined the documented behaviour of 32 CEOs between 2000 and 2024. In finding leader arrogance impedes innovative work behaviour, the thesis has demonstrated the impact of arrogance for current and upcoming leaders.
Uelen Fernanda Pinheiro de Oliveira	Professor Adela McMurray & Dr Ann-Louise Hordacre & Associate Professor Hossein Esmaeili	Supply Chain Transformation Enhancing supply chain sustainability performance through the S&OP process	Exploring the pivotal role of Sales and Operations Planning (S&OP) in enhancing supply chain sustainability performance, this thesis builds a comprehensive framework that integrates essential resources for successful S&OP implementation while emphasising sustainability management. Through 20 qualitative interviews with senior leaders in the Beauty and Personal Care industry, the study captures real world challenges and applications of managing supply chain sustainability globally. Key significant findings highlight the critical integration of sustainability into S&OP decision making, showcasing its significant impact on management practices. The development of a Sustainable Sales and Operations Planning (SS&OP) framework provides both theoretical and practical insights, aligning with global sustainability goals. This framework emphasises the importance of principles, integrated decision making, flow of information, and stakeholder engagement in achieving sustainable business practices. The study bridges the gap between theory and practice, offering a robust approach for businesses and scholars to achieve economic success while upholding environmental and social responsibilities.
Jennifer Lynn Richards	Associate Professor Lorna Hallahan & Associate Professor Hossein Esmaeili	Embodied Justice: An Integrated Faith Law Response for Christian Women Experiencing Domestic and Family Violence in Australia	This research theorises concepts of justice for Christian women who experience domestic and family violence (DFV). Collaboration between religious leaders and domestic violence workers is now seen as best practice in addressing the multilayered needs and safety concerns involved. This thesis brings questions of justice and the criminal justice system visibly within that collaboration at a conceptual and practical level. It develops a framework for church leaders and women to use when responding to DFV which takes both legal and faith considerations into account. It investigates potential barriers to engagement with the criminal justice system caused by faith beliefs. These are addressed through identifying elements of congruence between legal and theological meanings of justice. This overcomes any perceived inconsistency between a 'sacred' and 'secular' response to violence, allowing for an integrated, faith law response with significant restorative potential.
Jung Hyoung Yoon	Associate Professor Ian Goodwin‑Smith & Karen Williams & Dr Ashokkumar Manoharan & Dr Selina Tually	A person centred organisational management model for enabling meaningful socio economic engagement for people with cognitive disability	This study investigates how to enable meaningful socio economic participation for people with cognitive disability, using the creative arts as an avenue for engagement. Creating opportunities for meaningful social inclusion with individual, organisational and community benefits is examined using grounded theory and a case study methodology, identifying how three different inclusive arts organisations enable artists with cognitive disability to participate in various socio economic opportunities. The study explores the concept of Social Role Valorisation and the person centred approach underpinning the National Disability Insurance Scheme, the Australian disability policy, to understand how socially valued roles and meaningful engagement can be embedded in the current support landscape for people with cognitive disability. The research contributes critical strategies for organisational management as a practical model to enable socio economic participation, structured around access, inclusive practice and professionalisation working together as a person centred management approach. This model has relevance in other contexts and industries beyond arts organisations.

Afnan Ahmad N Beela	Associate Professor Julia Erhart & Dr Nicholas Godfrey & Helen Carter	Social, economic and cultural benefit of reopening cinemas in Saudi Arabia	The film industry in Saudi Arabia has undergone significant transformations since the 1960s. Cinema grew during the 1960s and 1970s until a conservative religious movement in the early 1980s led to a ban on cinemas. This ban lasted until 2018, when Saudi Arabia lifted the 35 year prohibition and launched initiatives to support filmmakers, including the establishment of film schools and international film festivals. A notable development has been the emergence of Saudi female filmmakers, who had been absent before the ban. This study traces the history of Saudi filmmaking, compares its revival to those in Australia and China, and examines the current industry status, focusing on education, production, exhibition, and distribution. The artifact of this research is a documentary highlighting the experiences of seven Saudi female filmmakers, shedding light on their challenges and contributions to the evolving landscape of Saudi cinema.
Helen Elizabeth Hamlyn Carter	Associate Professor Mike Walsh & Associate Professor Julia Erhart	Recognising cinematography: the industrial, technical and aesthetic role of the cinematographer with reference to films directed by Gillian Armstrong	This research identifies the contribution cinematographers bring to films by articulating the creative, technical and organisational work of Australian cinematographers. It elucidates the multi faceted role of the cinematographer as visual artist, directorial collaborator, technical expert and Head of Department. Using films directed by Gillian Armstrong as the principal point of reference, interviews and close visual analysis are employed to identify the ways in which the work of cinematographers reveals a range of distinctive styles. The films studied span forty years of cinema, including 16mm film, video and digital formats, and demonstrate a range of industrial and creative practices, from low budget documentaries to Hollywood features. This broad timeframe recognises the ways in which cinematographic practices have evolved. In particular, digital technologies continue to transform aspects of the cinematographer’s role, not only during shooting but also in pre and post production.
Melanie Jane Clark	Professor Peter Monteath & Dr Romain Fathi & Associate Professor Catherine Kevin	Too Aboriginal for the AIF? Aboriginal South Australian Volunteers & the First World War	Anzac in Australian memory centres on the Anglo Celtic experience of the First World War, emphasising egalitarianism—a national story for all Australians to take pride in. Excluded from White Australia, the Defence Act 1909 explicitly forbade the enlistment of any man who was not ‘substantially European’, including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander volunteers. Drawing on previously unexamined and underutilised archival documents to inform a collective biography, this localised study consisting of 90 case studies allows for deeper analyses of the lived experiences of Aboriginal South Australian volunteers while also positioning South Australia in the Australian First World War historiography. Prioritising an Indigenist lens and unsettling celebratory renderings of Anzac, this thesis explores the unique experience of Aboriginal South Australian volunteers. As an original study, the research raises questions about purported wartime egalitarianism and the problem of simply amalgamating Aboriginal First World War narratives within existing Anzac mythology.

Bernadine Countessa De Beaux	Professor Heather Burke & Associate Professor Alice Gorman	Tombs of the Living Dead: A critical analysis of the social construction of gender and space in relation to ascetic anchorite cells of medieval England and Wales c. 1000 1500 CE.	The medieval anchorite’s religious fervour, rules and regulations have been well documented by primary sources, and modern scholars have offered varying accounts of everyday life for the anchorite, as well as basic descriptions of their enclosures. Most of this research, however, focuses on particular anchorites or on general literature surveys of known enclosures. The material form of cells is less well studied. This research thesis provides a multi layered investigation, comparison and analysis of the medieval anchorite cell and its social construction of gender and space. It examines how the placement, size, style and form of anchorite cells were influenced by the gender and social status of their inhabitants and, in turn, how the built form of these cells constructed and reinforced particular ideologies of gender, hierarchy, class and religious behaviour. This thesis represents a significant contribution to the field of anchoritic studies and opens up new avenues for future research.
Jordan Bradley Evans	Professor Susanne Schech & Professor Melanie Oppenheimer & Dr Romain Fathi	New Blood: The League of Red Cross Societies’ Blood Transfusion Programme, 1946–1979	Jordan’s research centered how during the post Second World War period, the League of Red Cross Societies, the body that represented the International Red Cross Movement, became involved with blood transfusion. This technology would go on to have a significant impact on public health and global development initiatives, creating multi million dollar industries and saving countless lives. The League of Red Cross Societies played an influential role in the evolution of global blood transfusion between 1946 and 1979. From 1946 onwards, the League used its expertise in blood transfusion to help develop services in National Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies around the world, especially in the Global South. Using a range of rarely accessed archival sources, this thesis sheds new light on the growth of global blood transfusion and find that the service would be noticeably different today without the intervention and effort of the League of Red Cross Societies.
Julie Ann Gardiner	Dr Tanya Wittwer & Dee Mitchell & Christy Capper	Diabolical Dialogue: An Investigation into Obstacles and Opportunities in the LGBTQIA+ Discourse within Baptist Churches in South Australia	We all have values that shape our identity, and often, these values are deeply held, even sacred, the very essence of who we are. However, we increasingly live in an era where opposing values often collide, and the need to facilitate meaningful dialogue in the face of diverse opinions is becoming increasingly evident. Julie, a local Baptist Pastor, experiences this collision within the LGBTQIA+ discourse among individuals and groups in both the church and the community. Julie’s research investigates the obstacles to dialogue when perspectives are not merely opinions but rather inviolable beliefs that are sacred, rendering them resistant to compromise or alteration. Her research reveals a preference for silence over engaging in contentious conversations. However, this silence nurtures assumptions that worsen obstacles to dialogue. Julie's work provides practitioners with strategies to navigate complex societal debates, facilitating positive pathways and mitigating potential pitfalls in these challenging discussions.
Brenton Douglas Griffin	Associate Professor Catherine Kevin & Associate Professor Christine Winter & Dr Prudence Flowers	They Pretend to Have Remarkable Revelations’: The Reception and Representation of Mormonism in Australia and New Zealand, 1840 to Present	This dissertation examines two distinct but interrelated streams in the study of religion. First, it explores the development of Mormonism within Australia and New Zealand, from its introduction into the Antipodean British colonies in 1840, to the present. The chapters trace various flashpoints in Australian and New Zealand Mormon history, particularly how the actions or events in the Mormon metropole affected the outposts of the religion in these nations. It examines how Latter day Saints in Australia and New Zealand, who faced geographic and numerical isolation, have developed a unique identity as a localised religious minority. Second, this dissertation will look at how the Church and its members have been represented and received by broader Australian and New Zealand society. Here, the gradual entanglement of Mormonism, both as an institution and as individuals, within the public consciousness, popular culture, politics, and economics of Australia and New Zealand is addressed.
Elizabeth Barr Maughan	Professor Kristin Natalier & Dr Monique Mulholland	Gender Expansive Practices in Early Years Education: How do children engage when we share a nonbinary framework of gender with them?	Gender expansive practices in education – teaching children about gender diversity – attracts public outcry and moral panic. This thesis brings children’s voices to the debate and addresses adult concerns. It argues that children are not too young, can understand, and are not too impressionable to engage with gender diversity. The research found children’s own and other’s gender identity and expression were important to them and the flexibility of a nonbinary gender framework was appreciated by some children who felt restricted by dominant gender discourses. Children understood nonbinary gender and personal pronouns. They also understood that people and places were differently accepting or safe for gender diverse people. Children engaged and resisted gender diversity as agentic learners developing their own working theories of gender. Adult concerns are exposed as largely groundless. Educators can confidently implement gender expansive practices that proactively share gender diversity, including nonbinary gender, with young children.
Tania Lee Searle	Dr Monique Mulholland & Professor Simone Tur & Keera Laccos-Barrett & Professor Sharyn Roach Anleu	Unsettling Natural Resource Management: Indigenous nation building and the role of settler allies	In the Age of the Anthropocene and the environmental crisis, governments in settler societies are increasingly forming nation to nation agreements with Indigenous sovereigns for the collaborative stewardship of nature in natural resource management (NRM). Settler decision making, however, continues to dominate in what is meant to be a partnership space. The role of non Indigenous professionals in such arrangements is rarely examined and there is a need to investigate allyship in the offices and meeting rooms of settler institutions. This thesis employs qualitative methods to investigate two sites where Indigenous sovereignty is being recentred – 1) the Kungun Yunnan Ngarrindjeri (Listen to Ngarrindjeri Speaking) Agreement (KNYA), South Australia, and 2) the Columbia River Treaty (CRT), United States of America and Canada. Findings reveal that non Indigenous participants who foster a decolonising practice of allyship in NRM unsettle dominant colonial paradigms and settler logics by adjusting to Indigenous ways of knowing, being, and doing.
John Michael Senczuk	Professor Robert Phiddian & Associate Professor Erin Sebo	Louis Esson: The Last of the Colonial Playwrights	In the currently accepted foundation story of the Australian drama, a mythology has evolved around journalist and playwright Louis Buvelot Esson, especially his aspirations for a national drama. Following his death in 1943, commentators have positioned Esson as a ‘pioneer,’ ’Australia’s foremost playwright,’ and ‘the father of Australian repertory theatre;’ theatre historian Leslie Rees’ codified this reputation by referring to ‘The Legend of Louis Esson.’ While he contributed to the push for a provincial theatre through both the production of his plays and published commentary, his reputation following his death in 1943, however, has been disproportionate to his achievement. My thesis challenges the accepted hagiography and posits that Esson represents the conclusion of the Colonial period and not the beginning of the modernist movement in Australian drama. Louis Esson is the last of the Imperialists. I consequently suggest that there may be a more reliable alternative chronicle.
Minglei Wang	Dr Jeffrey Gil & Dr Nicholas Godfrey	Chinese Cultural Diplomacy in the 21st Century: The China Cultural Centre Project;	China Cultural Centres (CCCs), culture promotion organisations established outside China by its Ministry of Culture and Tourism, are at the forefront of Chinese cultural diplomacy. Despite this, these institutions are understudied. The existing academic literature on CCCs is largely descriptive and lacks in depth analysis. This thesis fills this gap by presenting one of the first comprehensive investigations on this topic. This study makes an original contribution by mapping out the establishment, operation, and programming of CCCs through varied data sources. Specifically, it highlights the structural and operational characteristics of CCCs. It also provides insights into their working modes and associated activities based on the case of the CCC in Sydney. Furthermore, it sheds light on the implications of the above aspects for the CCC project, adding to the understanding of China’s cultural diplomacy in the 21st century, and expands current discussions about Chinese cultural diplomacy.

Mr Paul Vasileff	Doctor of Letters honoris causa	Paul Vasileff is the Creative Director and Founder of South Australian couture house, Paolo Sebastian. Paul learnt to sew from the age of three and never looked back. Initially taught by his Grandmother, he completed his first evening dress at age 11 – Paul was fascinated by the inner workings and underpinnings of garments. With dreams of one day becoming a fashion designer, he developed his skills by undertaking private lessons in pattern making and sewing at the age of 13 and created countless formal dresses for friends in his teens. Aged 17, Paul debuted the first Paolo Sebastian collection which was entirely designed, drafted, and hand-sewn by himself. The collection received rave reviews from the public and press and he immediately began taking orders for private clients. Wanting to further his skills and knowledge, he sought out an apprenticeship with an Italian tailor practising in traditional sartorial methods, where he would develop his knowledge and technique. Shortly after, he was granted a scholarship to the prestigious Europeo Instituto di Design in Milan, Italy, where he graduated with honours. After returning to Australia, Paul expanded the business to employ and train staff that were equally passionate about honouring the traditions of fine sewing. In the years since, the label has evolved to become one of Australia’s leading couture houses, specialising in garments designed to accentuate the beauty of the individual. With a love of producing grand showcases, Paolo Sebastian was honoured to present in Paris for the first time in 2016 with its Gilded Wings collection. After leaving an impression, Paolo Sebastian now hosts annual showings in Paris. Key features of Paolo Sebastian creations include intricate hand-embroidery, elegant draping, delicate tulle, French lace, and romantic silhouettes. Paolo Sebastian now also visits Paris, Dubai and Doha regularly for trunk shows. In 2017, Paul was awarded Young Australian of the Year for his work in founding Paolo Sebastian and its contribution to the Australian fashion industry. Later that same year, he was awarded Designer of The Year in the Prix de Marie Claire Awards. Determined to create a local brand, the Paolo Sebastian designs are handmade in Adelaide, South Australia with each piece brought to life through the mastery of Paul and his team of 18 specialised seamstresses using traditional methods of craftsmanship.
