Nationally Significant Projects

  "Andrew has undertaken projects which will improve the performance of several systems that support Australia’s food trade system. This work has been of high quality and challenged some of the affected parties to make overdue improvements to their operating models.

Throughout the time I have known and worked with Andrew he has shown a strong ability to work with Governments, Ministers and the bureaucracy, as well as private firms and organisations.  He is known for his integrity and insight, and for his professionalism."

Former Secretary - Commonwealth Government Department

"Watching Andrew invigorate and empower a group of industry enthusiasts was an absolute delight. It takes talent and exceptional skill to achieve the level of engagement needed for meaningful change during a short facilitation session, but Andrew mastered that easily. 

Bringing a unique skill set to the room allowed Andrew to connect with people at multiple levels. He helped everyone understand the role of various stakeholders (including themselves) in developing and implementing an industry vision, but most importantly, he allowed them to discover their role. 

Everyone walked away feeling like they can make a difference, they had purpose. His approach made his session the groups highlight for the course. Definitely would engage Andrew again for projects and facilitation sessions that build capability and capacity in an organisation or industry."

  "Andrew’s leadership through our project was exemplary. He balanced the need to provide sound counsel to the organisation while also ensuring the work was carried out to our satisfaction. 

Indeed, the success of the project can be attributed in no small part to Andrew’s highly regarded reputation as a person of immense integrity and standing in the Australian Agricultural Community."  

Export sector CEO

  "During our engagement Andrew acted in a professional manner, whilst remaining approachable and often demonstrated the ability to consider and incorporate input from all parties, which were at times disparate in nature.

Andrew’s approach was flexible enough to encompass unforeseen issues that arose, whilst also timely and delivered stated milestones on time.

Andrew provided innovative solutions and options for consideration, whilst being cognisant of the nuanced and complex issues that exist in the agri-political landscape."

Wool industry CEO

"Andrew combines a deep understanding of the machinery of government with a unique intuition on economic and social policy more broadly. 

His advice brings clarity to complex issues. 

Andrew is a professional with integrity and his values of collaboration over conflict result in the delivery of incisive and practical advice. 

His wisdom is an invaluable asset to any organisation interfacing with either government or the broader public sphere and I have no hesitation in recommending him."
