Who benefits

I have decades of experience providing advice and leadership to government, commercial, and institutional clients in Australia and overseas.  My expertise includes turnaround of initiatives that are not meeting expectations, direction of strategy and change, and corporate governance. In general, the focus has been on resolving impasses at all organisational levels.

What consulting offers

Consulting manages and resolves

- Stalled objectives or projects

- Strategic differences

- Resistance to change

- Difficulties with stakeholder

- Interpersonal roadblocks

How it works

Organisational impasses can involve these and other many issues in multiple forms. Consulting provides analysis of the situation together with recommendations for resolution and frequently have directed the resolution. The focus is always a graceful outcome, meaning the difficult dynamics are contained throughout my work and lead to potential positive working relationships going forward.

Expertise

After teaching in Melbourne, I taught at the University of Southern California (medical campus), later at the American University Graduate School of Business (MBA program), and the Georgetown University Washington D.C. At the same time, I practiced as an organisational consultant and coach which I continued on return to Australia. I have presented many papers on business, systems, and organisational development topics and am a member of the Australian Institute of Company Directors and its coaching panel.
