Hi Bruce Just to update you they have offered me the role. I am just waiting for the contract in writing and I start on Monday!!! Wow not bad given where I was in November and we started together in late January early February this year. Thank you for being such a great Mentor, Executive Coach and Transition professional QS GM Australia Elect Commission
Hi QS That is excellent news, next step a letter/contract and start date if you feel this is a. Job that ticks all the boxes. If money has not been discussed it will be tomorrow. My advice is let him offer you a package first, even if he says what do you want? What comments do you have about working with BGA? Hi Bruce The advice I would give is to continue with the process and work on networking. Contact people you have not been in contact with and let them know you are looking. It can be very demotivating at times as you know you can do a lot of the roles you apply for but keep being rejected without even being spoken too. You only need one person to help or recommend you and that will give you the break you need. In addition to this the value gained form our association is having someone to talk to and who understands your situation and predicament and can help you in preparation for interviews and keeps you positive.

Bruce After a long 12 months, I’ve turned my client company RFL Alternators around and we were cash neutral for the last financial year and we have a good order book and uptake for the new FY. As I look back across my career, much of my last 15 years has been trouble shooting companies that loose cash.. It made me think about the future. We are seeing badly run companies and institutions burn shareholder wealth and end up in administration... If you came across opportunities, I’d be interested in troubleshooting these and restoring profitability... Just a thought..... DA- CEO Innovative Australian manufacturer of high performing Alternators
Doug Great news about congratulations on RFL Alternators now being cash flow neutral and good on you on you with all this behind you your new focus and using your vast experience as turnaround specialist to SME's who cannot afford PWC, Deloitte or similar. has such merit we need to develop ait with you. Suggestion can you write an article about how you are going / have gone about the turnaround? a) so we can promote you on social media as a specialist turnaround specialist b) we can assist in establishing your new business venture even as the initial back office. c) create with you a sustainable business plan, a name and poignant focus for each potential candidate. c) a web site and LinkedIn presence. d) I will happily promote this as well to my network as I do have a few who should be considering help , but money is always the issue. Let's Skype chat soon, you tell me when please?

Hi Bruce,I fly out of Sydney tomorrow morning at 6.15am landing in Perth, then a flight to Karratha, my home base for the Pilbara and surrounding districts, as the EPIC (Empowering People in Communities). They have assisted me by gaining a 3 bedroom unit in Dampier, and have sourced some basic contents for me. I commence with EPIC on Monday 25th November. I am thrilled to be given this chance as their Disability Services Manager, and will be the 6th one in some 18 months. They have been up front with me and advised there are many challenges, not the least of which is to change the culture of a small, but very strong group of individuals, all other are great staff. I have advised that the challenge is fully understood, and I will deliver. I will be keeping in contact, after I get settled, and if you are ever in WA, particularly near the Pilbara, please let me know, their will be free accommodation and a tour of the district, my pleasure. Thank you again for your ongoing support and faith in me, I truly do appreciate it. I see a 5-7 year term with this role, and my last to make a real difference, to people who are so very special. Have a lovely Christmas and a great New Year. Very best wishes, BGE EPIC Disability Services Manager

In December 2015 XXX was retrenched by her company where she had been a very senior manager for 10 years. Her bosses had been overlooking her for promotion so she complained that all these new people were continually being employed and she had to train them. The disappointment and pressure were too much for her and she wanted to leave so she sought a meeting with a Consultant at Bruce Gregory Associates who she learned are trained to identify the background behind anxiety and work to identify the predominant reasons and help rectify the problem. The outcome "I have been trying for 15 months to get a suitable IT role where my experience could be used but having no luck myself I approached Bruce Gregory Associates and after restructuring the way I was going about it I now have succeeded thank you" KK-IT Architect
I have had the pleasure of working with Bruce Gregory Associates who said they would work with me until I achieved my goal which is to work in an Airline, they listen to my issues the main one being I applied for about 50 jobs and eventually gave up. When I started working with them it was a very professional approach and I have now had 5 interviews and have an offer from Qantas and another form Jetset Training and that only took 8 weeks.
