Sharbel worked very closely with me on the change programme for Aurecon’s newly launched performance process. He was a true thought partner in our change approach, was proactive at pre-empting employee queries, developed a strong suite of resources including videos, communication templates and graphics showing completion progress. He ensured the process ran smoothly and was just generally, a pleasure to work with. He is very adept at understanding the business he is supporting, and their unique requirements. I would be happy to work with Sharbel on any change initiative in the future.

During the ANZ deployment of new learning management software, SABA, Sharbel learnt how to use a new remote learning software tool quickly.

Patrizia enhanced her analysis by embedding her change managements skills to ensure they were aware of the need for change, on what the change meant to them and created a participatory approach to the design of the training. She worked well with her stakeholders including regular communication team meetings updating them all on every step of the intended training program.

“I have worked with Gail on the implementation of a new financial performance reporting application for bankers – this change was challenging from an organisational perspective as it required changing the culture on how we have done financial performance reporting in the past through a series of manual and complex process most of which were not sustainable. Gail drove the change both from the technical and cultural perspective which involved training our bankers and internal teams with the right content messaged to purpose, effective stakeholder management across the business and finance function, enabling and empowering other change managers to execute the change strategy and overall being transparent on the change itself. Gail is driven and passionate about change and it was an absolute pleasure working with her on this significant piece of work.”

Always extremely positive, wanting to make a difference (and you do!) and someone who has total integrity on how you approach tasks. You empowered all of us at times when moral wasn’t good. I feel I totally understand you on so many levels in respect to what you say! I even repeat your sayings because they resonate with me so well”

I cannot recommend Gail’s coaching services enough.  Any scepticism you may have about the session will be washed away within the first few minutes of talking to Gail. The DISC profile session was one of the most informative and practical personal development sessions I have attended. Not only is Gail incredibly knowledgeable but her approach is personable, outcome focused and fun, you will walk away feeling like you have truly accomplished something and with a greater awareness of yourself, peers, family and friends. Gail has an abundance of experience in the field of personal development and leadership, and it is clear to see why she has been so successful – it is her passion, and in turn she is passionate about bringing her experience and knowledge to others and to help them operate and radiate as the best version of themselves.
