Speaking

Project Management Institute – Sydney Chapter
Thanks again for presenting to our members on 16 March 2009. With respect to feedback, as you would have seen from the feedback results it was clear that this was an excellent and timely topic for many people facing the uncertainty of the current economical climate.

Several attendees found the topic very interesting and one noted that self improvement should be considered by everybody this year. It was a great way for us to start this year’s theme.

Looking over the responses, one in particular may sum it up best:
“Interesting, relevant and inspiring”.

All the very best for your future engagements.
Thierry Haynes PMP, Director - Events Portfolio, Sydney PMI Chapter

Coaching

"Unless you happen to be an optometrist, being an ‘I’ specialist tends to limit your capability for learning.

Noelene’s ability to help me understand empathy was amazing. Her gentle yet firm direction helped unravel the mysteries in seeing things from somebody else’s perspective. It almost seemed each session with Noelene came with a new epiphany.

I wholeheartedly encourage all managers to consider Noelene for techniques and skills in overcoming people and process based problems."
Paul Finnerty, Sales & Marketing Manager

Team Coaching

CommInsure EIT
"In charge of a large team responsible for multiple applications across differing technologies and platforms, I found my managerial team (all skilled and capable technologists) lacked the skills to effectively define accountabilities, delegate meaningfully and report transparently. They also saw me as the problem solver instead of resolution facilitator, stumping their professional growth.

I worked with Noelene to devise a program to address these needs. Combining personal and team goals, the program addressed soft skills needed to change their day to day work practices, in the framework of becoming a high performance team leading high performance teams.

The results were excellent. 90% of the managerial team "got it" (10% moved on) and over time they changed the way they operated. Trust and collaboration between team members improved markedly, leadership skills improved, agreed managerial team goals were set and met. The ensuing professional growth energised both the direct report team and their downstream teams.

As I move to my next assignment I will seek Noelene out to deliver similar programs for me."
