“Even though I had managed staff for a number of years, calling employees into disciplinary meetings was something I didn’t enjoy doing. While I was experienced in the process, I was nervous about potentially putting the company at risk as disciplinary procedures can be a minefield . Having Vanessa assist me by talking through the issue, agreeing the course of action and having her sit with me through the meetings was hugely comforting and reassuring. Happily, the end result had my staff members refocused on their jobs and working well, so a positive outcome all around. Vanessa listens, understands the issues, and has the experience to make a confident call on the best course of action. A truly invaluable advisor!”

“As an experienced business and people leader sometimes I just need a trusted advisor to turn to. Someone who will give you time and really listen, understand what you are trying to achieve, challenge your thinking, offer options and alternatives - and that’s Vanessa! She leaves you confident you haven’t just made a good decision, you’ve made the best decision - for the business and for the people.”

“Developing the best performing sales and marketing team I turned to Vanessa to brainstorm with me how to get the most effective team structure and capability that would achieve our strategy. It was wonderful to have a sparring partner who both listened to what I wanted to achieve, but also challenged my thoughts to ensure we reached the most ideal outcome and fit for purpose team. Vanessa then led us through a process to re-design our Sales & Marketing Incentive Plan to ensure it motivated employees, rewarded exceptional performance, was affordable, and encouraged the behaviours we knew were necessary to have a high performing team that went the extra mile for all customers.”
