I wanted to thank you for all your efforts in coaching me through redundancy to new opportunity, specifically in your recommendations to improve my resume and my understanding of resume structure.
Thank you deliberatepractice for securing me a great opportunity and offering your continuous support. I would highly recommend deliberatepractice for their professionalism and amazing support.
It has been such a pleasure to spend time learning from you and with my team. We have already all grown so much and the collegiality is very evident.
It was a refreshing experience working with Peter and the deliberatepractice team. I felt well supported and their personal approach made it easy to build rapport.
Upon my redundancy, my company provided an outplacement program with deliberatepractice. Annette helped me figure out my next step and my next ideal career path. My sessions have been really valuable.
deliberatepractice has been engaged for consultancy services for approximately 2 years with Jobs Australia. Their expertise has been utilised extensively by the Board of Directors and CEO.
deliberatepractice is a dedicated HR consultancy who make it their business to know your business. Their professional and collaborative approach has delivered positive outcomes for our business.
I would have no hesitation in engaging deliberatepractice for professional advice and/or further consultancy assignments in the future.
Seven Melbourne has enjoyed excellent service delivery from deliberatepractice over the last 3 years. The personalised service and quick response times to our staff needs are what brings us back to their customised and problem specific approach for outplacement, management coaching, workforce and retirement transitional advice. They work closely with the HR team to deliver great results, ensuring a partnership approach within our business.
We engaged deliberatepractice to run an outplacement program following the redundancy of around 50 positions across numerous locations. A key point of differentiation was the proactive and professional way in which deliberatepractice managed the project.
Our employee going through the deliberatepractice program secured work within a few months time, which is a really positive outcome.
I engaged deliberatepractice to undertake a search for an individual with non-complementary skills. The assignment was taken on with great enthusiasm and delivered a superb result. I was thrilled when deliberatepractice presented me with not only one candidate but a shortlist of candidates who all met the brief.
Whenever I have engaged deliberatepractice for career transition they have listened carefully to our unique needs and requirements, and responded efficiently. The combination of flexibility, meaningful advice and considered quality support for our employees has been very evident. I feel confident that our employees feel well supported with the service they receive and for the full duration of their program.
We engaged deliberatepractice recently at our annual Sales Conference to deliver training to our frontline managers. deliberatepractice gave our managers a toolkit that focused on adaptive leadership and a framework to assist them with decision making. Our leaders are better prepared to handle common business problems and are communicating more positively with their team.
We engaged the services of deliberatepractice to find a senior level HR Director for our Asia Pacific operations following a failed search on our own. I was blown away by the quality of candidates deliberatepractice found and I'm positive that we could never have attracted the quality and quantity of candidates on our own. The slate of candidates ranged from good, better to best and our choice was very difficult. I literally wanted to interview everyone! We were extremely happy with our final candidate and he's doing an amazing job for us - I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Peter and the team to anyone.
Great team that is always there for us and ready to help with any challenging issues we come across. They are very client focused and seek to understand our unique business requirements in each case prior to giving advice. Outstanding service, very reliable and pleasure to do business with.
As a candidate with deliberatepractice, I have been really impressed with the support and the service I have been provided with. It has been a real personal and genuine experience.
I have worked with deliberatepractice when heading up the HR department/function in various companies, during significant periods of organisational change. It is a pleasure to partner with a group of people that have empathy and compassion for all stakeholders involved. They easily navigate through the ups and downs of change while having some fun along the way.
