Executive Director, NZ Game Developers
Simon's expert guidance empowered our newly formed board to create a comprehensive framework, enabling us to make swift and well-informed decisions. His extensive experience and knowledge in board governance, strategy, and operations, combined with his ability to convey information customised to our organisation, allowed us to develop a solid structure underpinning our strategy and prioritising the things that really matter.

We brought Simon into our business to help us develop a high level digital strategy. Simon took the time to talk with all the key people in our business, making sure he fully understood what was important to each of us, then reviewing the existing technology. We had high expectations about what we’d eventually receive back from Simon, and we weren’t disappointed. He produced a superb infographic that took us on a journey from our current level of clarity to a place where we could clearly see how our technology could fully support our business.
PSC Project Manager - Presbyterian Support Central
Simon is an engaging facilitator who intuitively picked up on the group dynamics and supported a fun and relaxed team session. From the exercises throughout the workshop, Simon guided our team to create a vision and tagline that captures our purpose and values.
IT Manager - Effective CIO Training
Thanks for everything you’ve done for us throughout the course from organising office personnel at ITP to lecturing the tutorials for the course and working through our final presentations. The feedback was honest and useful as was the content. I found all the topics exceptionally interesting. The course is enlightening for someone who is more technically, than critically, focused on the goals of the organisation. It was stimulating and the three hour sessions seemed to pass quickly with much left to contemplate and digest. It was a well structured course and I enjoyed the light hearted banter and hearing that others are much in the same boat as myself...Probably one of the best tutors I have had the pleasure to train under in years.
National Manager, Business Services - Workbridge
Simon was tasked to provide a quality systems assessment based on a high level briefing and with a very short lead time for provision (one week). The report provided was well considered and provided exactly what we needed to guide our efforts. We appreciate the effort expended and Simon’s delivery within the deadline set. Much appreciated.
