Testimonials
"I like Steve Cartledge's style. Bringing an Organisational Development Specialist into a mature organisation can be very threatening to people, meaning that barriers go up everywhere and people hope it will flop – and the sooner the better. Steve has a way of working with people that is probing and insightful, and at the same time friendly and empathetic. People find the experience nothing but positive. The result is a much more effective and enduring result – and genuine organisational improvement."
JIM GILL - Former Chancellor, Curtin University, Former Chief Executive, Water Corporation and Chair, Water Australia

"Steve was quickly able to gain the trust and confidence of our Partner group. A pleasure to work with; professional and articulate around tricky human interaction issues; and he does this in a way which is not confrontational but does deal head on with issues which require attention. He also brings an ability, through his experience, to view matters from a strategic perspective, which is of course invaluable in moving an organisation to higher levels of performance and well-being."
