She has the ability to pull people along with her, getting them to question their behaviour and then reinforcing the correct behaviour, in a manner that left them feeling positive and energised. One of Jaki’s strengths is that with just a little feedback, she can alter her work plan to suit her client’s needs, fitting in with their requirements smoothly and imaginatively. We would have no hesitation in recommending Jaki as a trainer, and wish her well in her future endeavours.”

Training Programs – Midway Feedback

“The training is assisting the development of our firm culture and alignment.”

Coaching

“Jaki your knowledge and articulation of subject matter is very impressive! I liked the way you set up sessions to allow discussion of issues or further investigation of points that were relevant for my personal professional development…that was particularly helpful.”
- Tania Shine, Teacher, Northland Kindergarten Association (2012)

“I thought it would be boring, it wasn’t at all. I thought I might be annoyed at paying for it – I wasn’t, it felt like the best spent money in ages.”
- Bonny Faulkner-Alexander, Managing Director, Whatitiri Organics Ltd (2012)

“I scouted the local environment to find a coach that could cope with my often boisterous/forward approach to getting the work done. Jaki came out on top! I needed someone to see my strengths and draw them in quickly to achieve a foundation of good working practices. As I have never been formally trained in business/administration yet am managing a company and assoc. agent to (husband) Whangarei Barfoot & Thompsons No. 1 Real Estate Agent for the last two years running. My volunteer work also takes up time (now a comfortable 10% of my week). Finding a balance and renovating my systems is what Jaki has allowed me to achieve, I am forever in her debt. And not for want of sounding soft – she has a heart! that you don’t find in the professional world that much. I am recommending ‘Fusion’ already.”
- Bonny Faulkner-Alexander, Managing Director, Whatitiri Organics Ltd (2012)

TNA (Training Needs Analysis) &
SDP (Strategic Development Services) Services

“From a staff management / moral point of view this will hugely assist us to put in appropriate training and feedback systems to further develop what is already a fantastic team and from a financial point of view that means our return on investment will be very impressive. After seeing the results I have no doubt our investment will pay for its-self many times over.”
- Craig Wells, Director, Sumpter Baughen Chartered Accountants (2012)

“The TNA has been a great start to our training and development process. We are now looking forward to working on the next step and formulating a forward moving plan.”
– Carolyn Moffat, Practice Manager, Spire Chartered Accountants Ltd (2012)
