We're different.

Rather than misidentifying a symptom of a problem as the actual problem, our community-minded, integrated approach to problem-solving  leads to practical, long term solutions. We provide services to not-for-profit, public, private and community organisations.

Unsolicited comments from a recent facilitated workshop...

 

"It was very productive and there was a great sense of team work. I feel very optimistic that we can progress some significant areas of work over the next 12 months."

 

"It was great learning experience for me, the historical insights helping me to better under­stand the context of the choices and chal­lenges we face now."

 

"It was SO great to be all on such a similar wave length, and working so well together. I guess it's especially great when one is a sole worker, to feel like part of a team."

 

"Productive and enjoyable, what a good combination!"

 

“It was good to catch up with everyone during a productive and positive couple of days - well done.”

 

“Thanks for the fantastic support that [organisation] contributed to the network professional development”

 

I would like to acknowledge and congratulate the work of ALL the long standing [workers in the sector] and other sector workers who have done so much hard work to build the capacity of us all to get to the stage where we can be so functional (This is also meant for those unable to attend)!”

Australian Achiever Award Heads Together referees say:

(Verify with Geoff Harwood, Director Australian Achiever Awards, 1800 638 318)

 

 

"They are extremely experienced and very supportive. I feel that Dr. Watson, in particular, has an intuitive understanding of business and people."

 

"Heads Together was recommended to us for a project. Key staff and I met with Bruce following which he put forward a proposal. His price was very reasonable so I arranged to use him for our project. He really listened to our thoughts and was easy to relate to. Bruce is friendly, professional and a fantastic motivator."

 

"The staff at Heads Together are very friendly and very interested in what we are doing. They went to a lot of trouble to research our needs and have been very consistent in meeting and keeping us updated on progress. I find them very professional, prompt in reply to my questions, their clarity of presentation is good and their customer service Is excellent."

 

"I find the people at Heads Together are very prompt. They communicate very well and they have the willingness to talk and understand our business. They are very professional, polite and they follow up well. We engaged them to do a relatively modest strategic plan for us but this has grown over time as we have asked more and more from Heads Together."

 

 

Why Heads Together can help.

 

Why do so many managers and CEOs put the very survival of their organisations at risk by not taking outside advice?

 

·         They develop severe perceptual distortions

·         They over attribute poor performance to external factors

·         They under attribute problems to weaknesses in current strategy

·         Their  stress level reduces information processing activity

·         They don't involve their colleagues

·         They persevere in their beliefs when the evidence says otherwise

·         They seek sources that affirm their beliefs rather than challenge them

"They say you should start with vision and mission and so on. Well, I think that's a load of old cobblers. What it does is open the opportunity for the chief executive to go on an ego trip."

 

"You really need to think deeply about why you're in business"
