Managing Director, Environmental Monitoring Solutions, August 2016
“We identified an opportunity within our business to harness the power of our people through clear alignment of effort with strategy. To achieve this we engaged Consultrain.
Adele redesigned our recruitment, induction and training procedures, resulting in a tailored induction and training framework that has proved very effective.
Adele also created and implemented our new employee performance program that has run now for a few years, again proving very successful.
Adele’s engaging approach with both the management team and employees fostered true buy-in from everyone that is so crucial to ongoing success. I would recommend her services to any business owner requiring human resource management expertise.”

Manager Staff Development, Monash University, June 2013
“Over the past 8 years, Adele has regularly facilitated a range of training workshops to meet the development needs of administrative and academic staff at Monash University. She has a good understanding of the organisation and has become a valued facilitator who consistently receives very positive feedback from participants on her engaging, knowledgeable and supportive facilitation style. Adele has also designed and delivered several training programs for Monash in core HR policy areas such as recruitment, selection, induction and performance management. She puts a lot of effort into keeping up-to-date with policy and procedural changes that may affect her areas of training. I would recommend Adele to anyone seeking an instructional designer and/or engaging facilitator who will work collaboratively with their business to deliver solid learning outcomes for staff.” Julie Spencer, Manager Staff Development, Monash University, June 2013

“The breakout sessions were one of the highlights – and I don’t normally say this for Zoom training sessions. But they were small groups, everyone was keen to participate and I put that down to the tone and atmosphere created by Adele.”

“Adele was fantastic. This was easily one of the best training sessions I’ve ever attended at Monash. Not only was the content helpful, but it worked because Adele was so good at communicating everything, in getting people involved, in managing the flow of the program. Easily the best training session I’ve gone to.”

“I was unsure how to feel about this program being swapped from an in-person workshop to being over Zoom. However, the use of breakout rooms and discussion boards made the process feel quite smooth and it worked really well. It didn’t feel like we were missing out on anything due to the conversion.”
