We had a feeling our team structure wasn’t working as efficiently as it could. Alice and Bill helped me turn that gut feeling into actionable insights, leading to a new and improved structure that’s set us up for success.

Alice has significantly enhanced our client-facing presentations. Her expertise in refining our presentation & requirements gathering techniques has not only improved the clarity and impact of our messages but has also transformed how our clients perceive our business. Thanks to Alice's efforts, our clients now have a clearer understanding of how we can streamline their operations through our software solutions.
Jason Naicker Founder
MetaPOS
Bringing Alice on as a consultant is one of our best decisions. She instigated a process and philosophy of work that was easy for me and the team to adopt. As a technical founder, I tend to overcomplicate processes and she was able to remove all the clutter and get right down to what we needed to do, and our delivery ramped up almost immediately. Beyond this, Alice maintains an extreme level of professionalism while adding a level of positivity and deep empathy that is often missing from business interactions. I would unreservedly recommend Alice to any team, large or small.

Bill and Alice have been amazing in coaching me to get focused and zero in on challenging areas that needed fixing.
Their insights and operational skills have made a difference for us. They have a knack for breaking down complex issues and giving clear, actionable solutions. Thanks to their guidance over the 6 months they were on retainer with us, we've streamlined operations and become more efficient. Bill and Alice are top-notch consultants who know how to manage operations effectively.
Laurie Hammond Founder

Alice is one of the most professional and collaborative project managers I have ever had the pleasure of working with - first class planning and process flows. Plus a broad range of skills in tech, HR, communication, strategic thinking...the list goes on. Any company, whether start up or established corporate would be lucky to have Alice on their team.

I have loved working with Alice & Bill and especially value the cross-cutting experience & innovative tools that support their "ways of working" and believe this will make a significant difference to the success of our next stage of development.
Paula Petit CEO
Linum Labs
Our Management Meetings used to be each of us reading out our TO LISTS out loud. Thanks to Alice & Bill we now speak openly about what is going on in each of our departments. They created us a Miro template we use each week & use stickies to capture our for next steps. These Management Syncs feel way less transactional now and flow more "freely". Our team feels the most "in-sync" we've ever been.
Gavin Mandel Operations Director
Smollan Intelligence
We decided to try out a cross functional team in one of our one service lines. We had a lot of young managers who were more technically focussed who hadn't really worked a lot with people and teams. We brought Alice in to help us better understand agile principles and the kinds of rituals that one would follow, the purpose of these rituals, and how to run these rituals. Alice then mentored and coached these young managers to run these rituals in an agile manner. This gave us the ability to scale our business, we have a whole new level of decision making, a whole new set of young leaders now able to lead their respective team's delivery in an autonomous manner. This in turn has freed the exco team up to focus on more strategic initiatives. It's been incredibly valuable working with Alice.
Riel Stofberg HR Manager
Modern Hair & Beauty
What a joy to work with Alice & Bill. In a relatively short period of time, they assisted us to be more focused by finding smarter ways of working, especially through collaboration between teams. As part of our journey with them they also presented two ‘listening skills’ workshops at our conference (one to management and one to our support staff), and through her professional, systematic, practical, relaxed, and fun approach, managed to entrench some critical communication skills. We look forward to a long and prosperous partnership!

It’s been so cool to see some big and small changes post the workshop series. I will start by saying that we have seen a lot more camera’s on in meetings without having to ask, I did not expect this happy change. On a interpersonal side, the team has started connecting more with people they normally wouldn’t connect with because they were in different teams previously and through this they have been helping each other a lot. There is a clearer understanding of what is expected from and to other teams. The way of working is more clearly defined. I have had 2 new joiners start since the workshop series & having the document to send to them was also very helpful as they know from day 1 what is expected from them. It’s also been a nice refresher for the older team members. The overall engagement has gone up from this session.
Juan Oliver Creative lead
Enovation
Alice was bought into Enovation in order to help us solve quite a significant amount of problems with our Workflow Process and Traffic Management. The outcome we have received was more than we could ever expect, and in turn, the processes have become a core and fundamental part of the business that allows us to run as seamlessly as an agency should.
Allen Jaffe CEO
Ecomplete
Business 2.0 is all about agility & efficiency which relates to profitability. In the post Covid-era, businesses need to be a part of a new way of working which is a simple yet complex metamorphosis. I would highly recommend Alice & Bill if you are open to change and if you are looking to grow.
Tim Doyle CTO
Afrikaburn
Our development team had become stuck between a rock and a hard place, our stakeholders were uncomfortable around delivery and time-frames, trust had been lost, and the whole ICT department was struggling to manage our main project. So we reached out to Alice...She swooped in and got everyone in the organisation on the same page - truly an achievement when we're the most creative and haphazard organisation. She helped us re-built trust as the ICT department, assisted in enabling tools to help us track tasks and time, and helped us push our impossible project to completion. It was the hardest job in the world, and she gracefully pushed through until we were back on track.
Melody Irish HR & Marketing Lead

Alice has been delivering workshops to our teams. She is engaging and interesting and the teams have thoroughly enjoyed her energy and passion. Thanks Alice for getting our project team members excited again! Our Project Managers enjoyed your 1 hour "masterclass" so much they have motivated for another group of Business Analysts to do it!
Deanne Roberts Head of Delivery
DataOrbis
Combining meetings and using Miro has changed how we work. Working asynchronously before a meeting to populate certain things has enabled us to come into our meetings prepared and ready to tackle decisions that need to be made head on. The other major benefit is that with our learned skills we were able to empower more team members to facilitate meetings. We created a rotational cycle where everyone gets the practical experience in running effective meetings.
