I LEAD Consulting in the Media

  • Institute of Managers and Leaders

    “Culture Add” rather than the traditional [concept of] “Culture Fit”… offers tremendous opportunity to literally add assets, we would have previously (unconsciously) dismissed. It’s a mindset ‘flip’ – but once your eyes are open to its potential value, you become aware of a world of opportunity you’ve previously failed to recognise.”

  • Director Institute

    “Leaders and managers who overcome their natural “Diversity Discomfort” and effectively leverage their inherent advantage, will deliver “Diversity Dividends” in the form of top quartile innovation and business performance”

  • Australian Human Resource Institute

    “Psychological Enrichment is the outcome of equal and consistent:

    • Collective Leadership
