consultancy services
As an Occupational Therapy Consultant, I can offer you the management services you need without the need for a permanent member of staff, or to add additional skills to your staff mix. Whether that be supervision, appraisal, project work or service review. As a number of tasks can be completed at arms length, out of the office, and meetings can be managed by video link, the costs to an organisation are considerably lower than having an employed manager on site.
I have 10 years of management and leadership experience . I have experienced organisational and personal change and I know how significantly this can affect business function if it isn't sensitively handled.
