Caroline has recently been ‘Highly Commended’ in the ‘Change Management Consultant of the Year’ category of the Management Consultancies Association’s 2016 Awards.
“Having worked on a number of large business transformation programmes, I can draw on my experience in conversations with my clients to provide examples of the types of issues and scenarios that will need to be addressed at key stages of a change programme, as well as the implications of certain decisions.
Gaining trust and buy in from my clients from the outset is something that I always invest a lot of time in. I also build relationships with the key business interfaces – those who will be ‘on the receiving end’ of the business change – to understand their perspectives.”
