What our clients say

Cassie Martella

Key Relationship Executive

I am incredibly grateful for the support and guidance Dee has provided throughout my career journey. Over the years, Dee has been a constant source of wisdom and encouragement, helping me navigate through multiple career transitions and personal challenges. 

 

From my initial days in banking and project management to my venture into fundraising, Dee’s insights have been invaluable. Her expertise was particularly transformative when I made the significant shift from the corporate world to the not-for-profit sector. 

 

Dee’s ability to understand and navigate the nuances of these different industries ensured that I was well-prepared and confident at each step. One of the most challenging aspects of my career has been balancing professional aspirations with motherhood. Dee’s empathetic approach and practical advice have made this journey manageable. 

 

She has been instrumental in helping me transition from a full-time to a part-time role, ensuring that my career continued to thrive while I also dedicated time to my family. Dee’s coaching has not only helped me achieve my professional goals but has also empowered me to find a fulfilling balance between my career and personal life. Her support has been a cornerstone of my success, and I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a compassionate and knowledgeable career coach.

Julia Athos

Recruitment Consultant

Dee is a breath of fresh air! She’s very genuine, honest, and direct – in the best way possible! She is not afraid to tell you the “harsh truths”, but she delivers it in a way that encourages you to push yourself and do better with the genuine care and interest to propel you forward. She knows exactly when to stretch me and when to let me take a calculated risk and learn from it.

She coached and trained me intensely over a short period and after yielding underwhelming results in relation to what I thought I’d be achieving; I had completely transformed as an IT Recruitment Consultant. I had direction in how I approach and “sell” (without selling) to candidates and clients, significantly increasing placements, converting cold calls or emails to meetings- especially with the hard-to-crack or dismissive people.

Dee’s impact went far beyond training. In the often-challenging corporate environment, she provided invaluable support and guidance on navigating office politics, building my confidence, managing up, and further learning how to leverage my current role to create a pathway to reach my long-term career goals. 

I think Dee’s difference is that she ACTUALLY cares and showed it on many occasions dedicating her time after hours to help me, ensuring that I got the support that I needed at that time. 

Her results-oriented approach, combined with her empathetic and honest style, has made a world of difference for me. I’ve always felt she’s been one of my biggest advocates and that’s what makes her the real deal!

Vanessa Knispel

National Resourcing Manager

Working with Dee has been a transformative experience for our team. In my current role, she was instrumental in building an assessment centre that revolutionised our internal hiring process. Dee’s expertise shone through as she designed and executed a multi-day ‘Introduction to Recruitment’ program for beginners, which was both comprehensive and engaging.

Her one-on-one coaching sessions were invaluable, offering personalised guidance whenever needed. Dee’s commitment to developing our skills didn’t stop there; she also conducted advanced recruiting workshops and provided account management training for those looking to transition roles within the company.

Dee’s deep knowledge, coupled with her genuine passion for helping others succeed, has made a lasting impact on our organisation. Her ability to tailor her approach to meet individual needs sets her apart, making her an exceptional coach and mentor.

Kithavia Naidoo

Senior Business Development Manager

Working with Dee has been an absolute game-changer for my sales career. Her expertise in business development and sales strategy has profoundly influenced my personal success and growth. 

 

Dee’s insights into market mapping and target market analysis were instrumental in helping me develop new markets and achieve some remarkable results. 

 

One of the standout achievements during our collaboration was securing a client in an untapped market, which opened the doors for our business to within that market.

 

This success was a direct result of the meticulous strategy Dee helped me implement. Dee’s ability to develop compelling sales materials has consistently enabled me to increase my conversion rates. Her proficiency in forecasting, sales reporting, and managing executive stakeholders ensured I gained crucial buy-in to my proposed sales strategies. 

 

Dee has expertly guided me in balancing key account development with new business development, ensuring no opportunity was left unexplored. She introduced innovative time management techniques, prioritizing revenue-generating activities, which significantly boosted my productivity. By automating administrative tasks and transforming the way I conduct meetings, Dee has enabled me to focus more on strategic sales activities. 

 

Dee has been a key player in driving my sales success. Her strategic insights, dedication, and ability to generate results are unparalleled. I highly recommend Dee to anyone looking to improve their sales performance and achieve real, measurable results.

Brooke Williams

Associate Director

Over the past 20 years working for one of Australia’s largest 

financial institutions, Dee was my go-to mentor as I navigated the many corporate challenges throughout my career relating to understanding how to position myself for highly sought after promotions to developing my leadership skills and most importantly, navigating the largest change – redundancy.  

 

After initially coaching me through the very emotional period of understanding how this redundancy would impact my life, I took some time off and was ready to find work again. 

 

I felt I needed a career change but was challenged by not being able to identify what the next path would be. Dee really encouraged me to think outside the box. She worked alongside me to assess my skills, knowledge and key attributes which then led to her presenting different career trajectories to try and highlight what the future could hold. 

 

Dee transformed the way I viewed and approached the job market. We wrote a resume that highlighted many strengths I didn’t realise I had and intensely trained me on becoming a strong interviewee which I believe gave me a competitive edge. 

 

Dee also challenged me personally – pushing me outside of my comfort zone and empowering me to leverage my personal circumstance as a female leader balancing a young family and removing the feeling of that being a hindrance to progressing professionally. 

 

By working with Dee, I’ve overcome “imposter syndrome” and realised my worth, that I have so much to offer a business and that I WILL achieve all-round professional and personal success!

Yanis Guzel

Director, Digital Business Transformation

I engaged Dee to address critical gaps within my team pertaining to a large, complex Health Technology strategy, design and implementation program. The primary concerns were the mismatch of skills and capabilities among team members, as well as the absence of clear goals and accountability at an individual level, both in the technical and business landscape. Her expertise was pivotal in not only identifying these issues but also in developing and implementing effective solutions that have significantly transformed our team’s performance.

Dee performed a detailed skills analysis using a customized competency framework to determine our team’s capabilities. This led to a responsibility assignment matrix that provided team members with clarity on their roles and assigned activities, individual learning pathways, as well as escalation points within the business, which helped increase the efficiency of the overall delivery components.

The one-on-one coaching sessions were instrumental in helping team members develop the necessary knowledge, skills, and attributes required for their roles. Dee set stretch goals for each individual and provided a robust mechanism to maintain accountability. 


I anticipated a learning curve for my team and understood the ramp-up in project deliverables would take a hit. However, the way the team operated both individually and collectively was precisely what the program required. The result was a team that was articulate in their work, cohesive, aligned in their delivery, and ultimately successful in implementing within a highly agile and mature delivery methodology environment.

Dee’s comprehensive approach not only elevated the skill set and accountability of individual team members but also fostered a cohesive team environment focused on common objectives. This holistic transformation allowed me to concentrate on my key responsibilities at the C-suite level, driving overall business performance and achieving our strategic goals. Ultimately, the project sponsor fully endorsed the program, recognising the exceptional collaboration and professionalism of the team in delivering what was once considered an impossible vision.

Stephanie Ebejer

Founder / CEO

I have had the privilege of knowing Dee for many years in various capacities, including as a facilitator, trainer for my staff, and my executive coach. Dee has been instrumental in transforming individuals into high-performing professionals through her bespoke training programs, one-on-one coaching, and group sessions. As a hands-on, high-performing leader, I have always had confidence that new hires would receive robust induction and training under Dee’s guidance, setting a high standard of expectations. Staff members felt comfortable approaching Dee with any queries or challenges, and she always took the time to assist them.

 

Throughout our collaboration, Dee and I have regularly conducted feedback sessions to discuss individuals’ progress, development areas, and skill gaps. Her patience and belief in the people she mentors are exceptional, driving others to believe in themselves and feel secure as they progress from good to great.

 

Dee has also provided me with invaluable executive coaching throughout my career. She takes the time to understand my career goals, strengths, and areas for development, often knowing me better than I know myself. Her tailored approach aligns perfectly with my goals and values. Over the past 12 months, Dee has invested significant coaching hours into my professional development, equipping me with the tools needed to start ifindtalent. Her focus on executive modules, ROI, and female empowerment has been particularly impactful.

Dee consistently goes out of her way to check in, relentlessly believing in my success and sincerely celebrating my achievements. For Dee, the success of others is her success. There are very few professionals I recommend as highly as Dee. I strongly endorse her to anyone looking to elevate their career.
