"As an organisation reliant on donations and focused on committing our resources for better outcomes for children, being as efficient as possible in our back office functions ensures that funds are not diverted away from our core activities. Recently we undertook a review of some of these activities and commenced a project to create the changes needed to improve our organisational efficiency. Recognising that the project team lacked the skills required to thoroughly map the multiple tasks that each input might generate, we engaged Simon. As someone who can assimilate complex information he was contributing to the project and its direction within 24 hours and became a leading member of the project delivery team within his first week with us. Core skills that he bought to the fore that enhanced our project were his focus on LEAN, his project and change management skills, facilitation of the project meetings themselves and dependent stakeholder relationships. At all times he retained his focus (despite competing priorities) to the delivery of the agreed outcomes through his organised pragmatic approach. His work with us has come to an end and we launch our new processes with confidence that we have turned over every stone needed to make this project successful. We expect the change, once embedded will reduce associated admin between 30-50% but more importantly by getting to the right place faster we will compromise less thereby protecting our resources. It has been a pleasure working with someone who is always diligent, practical and considered."
