Having worked in Change Management recruitment for the past 16 years, I am passionate about help both candidates and clients to upskill in all things Change.
Why you are excited/why you think it is a worthwhile use of your time to be part of Capability for Change
I have known Mel and the team for a number of years now, they run some great courses and sessions that help to up skill both candidates and organisations, many of the clients and candidates that I work with have used Capability for Change in some form.
In my role, I help clients find the best Change candidates for their specific requirements, Mel and the team play a huge part in upskilling the Change Management community that in turn helps the clients that I partner with.
