A strategic thinker, my skills lie in developing teams through mutually beneficial workplace satisfaction. By creating teams that own their work and feel part of something important within the community my philosophy has always been pretty much driven by the below quote;The leaders who work most effectively, it seems to me, never say 'I.' And that's not because they have trained themselves not to say 'I.' They don't think 'I.' They think 'we'; they think 'team.' They understand their job to be to make the team function. They accept responsibility and don't sidestep it, but 'we' gets the credit.... This is what creates trust, what enables you to get the task done. -Peter Drucker• Developed business plan for Area South• Developed special Schools Engagement Strategy• Developed Indigenous Engagement Strategy• Developed area marketing plan for Area South• Recruit, train and manage staff• Manage 30 staff over 4 teams at Inala, Fortitude Valley, Ipswich and Woodridge• Develop strategies, systems and processes to increase placements of job seekers and increase revenue• Performance manage staff• Manage motivate and develop successful teams• Maintain budget integrity• Achieved 3 x 3 star, 1 x 4 star and 1 x 3 star sites.
