Business Planning That Works: Setting Direction and Driving Alignment
One of a leader's most critical capabilities is creating and communicating a shared vision for the business.
This goes beyond setting goals - it’s about actively engaging with others to establish direction and ensure all stakeholders have clarity and know how to deliver value to customers.
Business alignment is also a leader’s responsibility. It requires ensuring that the business’s systems, structure, and people - individuals and teams - work optimally to achieve the desired outcomes.

TESTIMONIALS
"I had the pleasure of working with Melanie Moorcroft, a dynamic and progressive change leader, coach, collaborator, and strategist. Melanie facilitated three workshops for Switched On Group: one for the executive leadership team focused on strategic change leadership, and two for our senior leaders on leading themselves and others through change.
 Throughout these sessions, Melanie demonstrated an exceptional ability to keep everyone engaged and focused. Her expertise and approachable style inspired our leaders, leaving them with a clear understanding of what is required to successfully lead through change. Melanie's impact was evident in the renewed confidence and direction our teams gained from her guidance. I highly recommend Melanie for any organisation looking to navigate change with clarity and Inspiration."

Client Services Director, Prosci-ANZ
"I was fortunate to do a leadership training course that Melanie organised and ran. The course spanned a year and included a residential component and then a number of single days focused on personal leadership, leadership in the organisation I work in and on values based leadership practices. This was the best professional development I have done to date. The programme was well thought through and included interaction with senior leaders in my organisation and from outside. Melanie was very skilled at challenging my own values and how they play out in the workplace but also very encouraging of me to find my own pathway forward with personal leadership. Since doing the leadership programme I have received a significant promotion (to professor) and taken on a senior leadership role (Head of Department) and my ability to succeed in these areas has been significantly aided by my experience on the leadership training that Melanie facilitated."

"I have worked alongside Melanie with numerous small to medium business clients. The leaders of these businesses are all experienced but recognised the need for their businesses to develop further to maximise their performance with existing resources. The Leadership Arena Program presented by Melanie fits easily with any organisation. The program is based on practical engagement and interaction with leader/managers who are inspired to improve performance across their businesses. Her extensive experience across a variety of business sectors and sizes, enables her to relate to and understand the requirements of each program and use that knowledge to enhance management confidence and capability. Her passion and quality engagement enables her clients to bene!t from follow-up programs which support leaders’ continuous improvement."
