facilitation & event planning
do you want an event that gets a 5 star rating?
Whether you want to hold an offsite training or planning day or plan a conference, the basics to success are the same.
Inclusion, collaboration, psychological safety, curiosity.
I am the convenor of AustralasianChangeDays.com and responsible for Direction, Planning, Technology, Selection of Facilitators and overall curation.
I have facilitated many off site multi day workshops on many topics as well as provided training to executives and teams on leadership, change and leading people through change.
Book me to facilitate your next strategy session.
analysis - information to knowledge
i love data!
In my early career I worked hands-on with large data sets using SPSS, SAS, ArcView GIS and later Tableau. Turning data into knowledge was an area that I excelled in and led to several jobs in modelling and future planning.
I brought these skills to many of my more senior roles, in particular in my role as Director Financial Transformation, managing a program of 11 projects all with big data at their core.
With a confidence in my capacity to make sense of the data, my training in Behavioural Science and my natural curiosity, you can be certain of the rigour I'll bring to your project/team.
project & change delivery
large scale or small scale, public, private or civil society
From research and Business Case development, through to the operationalising of projects, I have a long and varied career working in projects and change. Some of my recent work includes:
- Development of the roll out strategy for a Digital project for a government department.
- Relocation and introduction of new ways of working for 300 staff at a Bank
- Establishment of a $100M program of work for a Foundation working in Ocean Health
- Developing a specialist youth mental health service
- Managing a program of eleven financial projects which had a focus on reducing a significant budget deficit through projects and business improvement processes.
- Development of the case for and established the program management office for WA Health.
- Development and implementation of a Change Management Plan to support organisational wide reconfiguration & stakeholder management
connection & community
i'm known for my people skills and ability to connect
I am passionate about building connection and as a Behaviour Change and Strategy facilitator/consultant I've learned that we must build connectedness to have any real impact. Connectedness, collaboration and co-creation are the hallmarks of change; and the hallmarks of my practice.
Building community is something that is very important to me, in a workplace I build connection from Day 1, look for existing opportunities to leverage that connection and if they don't exist then I begin to build them.
What does that look like? There are a variety of options depending on the organisation and the reason that I have been invited to join. It may include setting up Lean Coffee's, Communities of Practice or Change Engagement Networks. Your people will feel included and informed and will be driving the change before you know it!
workforce & hr
is this what keeps you up at night?
Don't worry! My first step wont be about recreating your Vision and Values!
It will be about working with you to create a more human-centred workplace that can drive improved performance and employee happiness.
Employees who feel happy and purposeful at work demonstrate higher productivity, increased motivation and greater feelings of organisational alignment.
There is data involved too. I'll be looking at your retention rates and your unexplained absences, your bullying and harassment reports and processes and how your teams function.
I am a qualified Organisational Development (Psychology) professional with more than 10 years of senior workforce experience.
strategy & complexity
complexity with a touch of chaos? i might be who you need
I have worked with a number of CEOs , from public sector to Formula 1 on their strategy, and importantly on their strategic issues.
All large organisations are complex and there is no one size fits all to successful sustainable change programs. The only thing that is consistent is that they require a level of behaviour change. Facilitating behaviour change requires leaders and managers to have an approach that enables constant testing, learning and re-plotting at pace. This is where you will get a lot of value from someone who understands human behaviour, understands what makes change hard for some people and has a wealth of experience facilitating people and organisations through the process.
