“If you need to uncover your potential in business or emotions and want to see incredible results, do yourself a favour and work with Justine, she will search for, reveal and create the perfect strategy for you to succeed.”

“Justine’s approach is practical, insightful and encouraging. She takes a genuine interest in me and my business and more importantly my development and capability as a senior leader.
Justine challenges the norm and stretches my thinking to a more deeper and broader perspective.

Debbie - GM People and Culture Viadux
I get it, as a CEO you’re busy, too busy. You operate in a complex, dynamic, and challenging environment, however are you fulfilled?
What if I told you that constant crisis management could be costing you your fulfilment?!
I can help you as the leader of your organisation get free from the day to day drain of solving deligatable issues, so you can get back in the driver’s seat of company growth and more importantly, get back to doing what you love.
The reasons this is happening of course can be complex. However, if this is something, you’re faced with there’s certainly no shame or judgment here, only a path forward to get you unstuck, permanently unstuck!
With over 25 years of success in identifying the root cause of organisational issues, I’ve equipped CEOs to build company capabilities that stand strong long after I’m gone. And isn’t that the real objective to build a strong business able to meet the needs of the future customers.
Imagine being able to trust your people and processes to reliably deal with the majority of both day to day issues, as well as the more complex ones, so that you can regain freedom to lead the industry growth you know you’re capable of.
Through my unique experience in Senior HR, Operational and Risk Management roles in ASX 100 companies, I see business from both a profits and people perspective and appreciate the complexity of leading teams in a dynamic and demanding environment, where it feels like everyone constantly wants a piece of you and that you are being pulled in multiple directions at the same time. But there is more, and it is available to you.
Is there anything better than going home at the end of the day feeling fulfilled, knowing you have made a difference, energised about the opportunity’s available tomorrow and confident that your team can grab them with both hands?
Having led high performance teams across Human Relations, Risk Management, Operations and now as a consultant to leaders. I understand the challenges of people leadership, leveraging the team’s expertise, creating systems and process that build capability and performance whilst simultaneously working to engage the hearts and minds of your people.
I will work with you to produce the type of team cohesion, people management and performance accountability you can confidently trust.
Achieving business growth goes deeper than an effective operating system and delivering metrics, it requires your focused attention. Which is why it is pivotal to build the capability in your team and operating model to manage the operations for today so you can focus on building the business for tomorrow.
If you’ve struggled to connect all the pieces in your business, you’re not on your own, its common. And it could be why you are constantly dragged back into fighting fires. Together we take back control of your time, resources and your company enabling you to lead with oversight and clarity.
As a trusted advisor for organisations such as Fantastic Furniture, Australian Tax Office, Australian Industrial Relations, Masters and most recently with Michelin Australia, you too can have confidence that I can help you deal with the ongoing issues that are robbing from your time, the growth of your company and your personal fulfilment.

“I asked Justine to assist a business and within the first meeting, she was able to find the root cause of all our people (and growth) problems.
Not only has Justine been able to identify the people problems, but she has been a major part of helping us build a sustainable business that doesn’t require the CEO there every day. And it’s only been six months.
I highly recommend Justine to any business that’s struggling with their people. She’s exactly what businesses need”.
