About

In a world where disruption is constant, the real advantage isn’t stability, it’s the ability to adapt staying true to our higher purpose with love and care at our core. At Modern People, we help leaders and teams thrive in the “grey space” between who they are and who they want to be. The space where we see our shadows and choose to face uncomfortable truths, so we may rise to a new level of consciousness and unlock infinite possibilities. The organisations we work with don’t just want to survive change, they want to use it as wind in their sails. That means embedding reinvention as a continuous practice; anticipating shifts, experimenting with new ways of working, with care, love and contribution at its core. Our approach blends ancient philosophy with the latest research in positive psychology, leadership science, and systems and culture. And as a certified B Corp, we are deeply invested in economic system change and equitable and regenerative practices. For over 20 years, I’ve work…

Priority Appointments · Perth & Melbourne

Executive Search | Recruitment | Corporate Wellness | Strategy & Coaching My passion is people. The industries I've aligned myself with range from corporate financiers and mining start-ups to airports and industrial companies in the suburbs - what can I say, I don’t discriminate! And why? It keeps things interesting day-to-day, and constantly learning about new verticals keeps me switched-on and tuned in. Generalist vs. Specialist: You can market your agency anyway you like, but ultimately what I believe makes a good HR professional is the ability to understand your client, their business and what it needs, and most importantly their culture. What makes a good placement? Understanding the culture, not just from a topline point of view, but at a departmental level i.e. a certain candidate may fit into one department but not another.
