Testimonial

“As an external consultant, Shirley has no fear or favour in her answers. There is no colouring and no bent of departmental politics, we speak very plainly to each other. I get good feedback and information. I learn how it really is, how people are feeling. I have read Shirley’s book Team Play, Strategies for Successful People Management and I trust her judgement of people’s character and their behaviour. She has vast experience in analysing people’s character, what training they need and what drives them. The first stage of our changes we used Shirley for, was a complete success. I’m happy to take any calls and act as a reference for Shirley McKinnon.”

Transmin Pty Ltd

"Shirley is a very bright and engaging facilitator who has a strong grasp of the content she delivers. She is able to very effectively pitch programs to the level of participants. Her skill at doing this means she is able to work successfully with frontline staff through to senior executives. Clients regularly say that her programs are highly interactive and fun, but at the same time, there is a key message or learning in the content."

Maitland Consulting Group

"Our sales team was voted by its peers as Australia’s best. This was the culmination of two years of over-achievement — it’s no coincidence that this is the precise time we’ve accessed McKinnon’s expertise."

Mix 94.5FM

"You know there's a problem, that something's wrong. With Shirley's help in identifying the problem and finding the solution, you become focused on becoming the best you can be, rather than just accepting things the way they are."

Bee Box Marketing.

“I’m so glad that after 8 years in business I finally took the step to work with Shirley. I was hesitant to have someone tell me what to do but it wasn’t like that. Shirley listened to me and my staff and gave honest feedback and tools on how to assist with issues that arise in the workplace. I now think about the things she told me when something goes wrong, and a resolution is much easier. Thankyou Shirley.”
