Background

Chris has over 28 years experience with people- individuals, groups, teams and entire companies/organizations. In addition to working with a very diverse range of clients in Australia, he has cultural diversity experience from working in different countries including, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Philippines, Hong Kong, China, Austria, Hungary and Georgia/Russia.

For 19 years, Chris was the General Manager of an international organization involved in change management, culture development, leadership development and other related areas. In his role there, he was responsible for the growth and implementation of the organization’s education curriculum in Australia, New Zealand and parts of Asia. This included overseeing the translation of the core education into several languages and cultures including Thai, Indonesian, Hungarian and Chinese.

This client relationship management, which included working with the leadership and management team in implementing the education and overall curriculum, often was tied in with other initiatives including for example: merging two corporate cultures (made up of 4,000 people), establishing a customer service culture (12,000 people), creating a quality assurance mindset / culture and other initiatives. Organizations worked with included CountryWide bank New Zealand, Telstra, Qantas, Coles Myer, Television Corp Singapore, Nylex Malysia, Coca Cola Indonesia, Australia, Austria/ Hungary, Bangkok Bank Thailand, Imation Singapore.

Chris has gained experience and expertise in the spectrum of “people” services including:

Attract and assess,
Retain and develop,
Engage and align and
Transition to this broad range of clients.

Working with such a diverse range of personnel (from staff/ operators) to semi skilled to skilled trades people to team leaders to managers and professionals to Chief Executives and Board members/ owners has also ensured a continuous improvement mindset also resides within Meelup Management itself.

Chris believes that most people, whether at the individual, team or collective corporate level are capable and keen to develop and/ or change, provided they are treated with respect, shown in which ways to develop and supported on the way. This often starts by moving from unaware and unable to aware- but not quite sure how…..Meelup assists with this “how”.

Chris is married to Sue who is a Sports Director at a private girls school in Perth and has three children 23, 21 and 18.
