Advisors provide critical thinking, robust analysis and strategic insights to increase the confidence of the decision-makers on how to solve business problems, explore new opportunities, manage a crisis or mitigate risk.
As Certified Advisors, we use various tools to assess our client’s business and then leverage our professional experience to develop a wide range of bespoke options. Ultimately, we provide the data to assist our clients in making an informed decision on what action they want to take.

“As a health service Board member, Julia provided great counsel, insight and support in many areas – people and culture, safety and quality and business and finance. She was courageous in her questioning, stretching Board thinking into new directions and was generous with her time and input. As a CEO, I felt she provided fairness, balance and organisational support.”
Kate Gillan, Executive Director Clinical Services and Chief Nursing Officer at Epworth
“Julia took the lead in facilitating the development of the strategic plan with the Executive and the Board coaching the Executive team in planning and annual objective setting. She regularly challenged colleagues to validate their position and asked probing and insightful questions that resulted in a better operational approach being adopted.”
Sue Forrest, Senior Consultant at mexec
“Julia co-created the new business model and championed proposals within the executive. With the security of a strong industrial and employee relations framework built by Julia and her team, we were able to be ambitious, courageous and innovative in redesigning the service. This organisational realignment improved client service outcomes, created an engaged remote workforce, led to operational efficiencies like reduced agency spend through improved shift management and reduced overtime, but increased the number of home care packages held by the organisation.”
