Executive Hr ConsultantSandy Deans Consulting 2005 - PresentBrisbane, Queensland, AustraliaSeeking an opportunity to drive impact at scale, I initiated my own entrepreneurial venture committed to giving back to the community’s emerging businesses. Through my advisory work for management and Board teams of Gold Coast businesses, I have helped formulate robust HR and change management strategies, and oversee tactical execution to build, motivate and retain high-performance talent. Some of the major engagements I have partnered on include:♦ Gold Coast City Council: Engaged by the CEO to help retain talent and maintain stability during a period of significant organisational and cultural change.
