TESTIMONIALS

I had the pleasure of working with Sarah while she was at GFG Alliance. I found her to be a refreshing & rare mix of someone who had a depth of experience & skills, combined with someone who was curious, open, and able to switch into a 'beginners' mind' to learn & adapt. A marvelous combination.

I can highly recommend Sarah for her subject matter expertise, dedication, and hard work. Her commitment to getting the job done and bringing a fresh approach and new ideas.

Most importantly for me, she is a down to earth person who integrated easily into the GFG business and was at ease interacting with staff, managers, and executives.

She understood the business needs and was able to produce high-quality L&D resources and tools for the GFG team.

I would strongly recommend her to any future employer or organisation requiring a dedicated, hard-working HR professional to consult on a temporary or permanent basis.

Sarah's design, delivery & facilitation skills come highly recommended.

She is insightful and professional and draws on her extensive public and private sector experience to provide a tailored solution that has made a positive, long-lasting impression. This is supported by 'all level' delegate feedback.

I have no qualms in endorsing Sarah to you and your organisation.
