ADF Partners

Hello again!

This page is dedicated to all of you amazing Australian Defence Force Partners – Yes you!

It is an honour and a privilege to work with such incredible and often talented individuals. Especially because you are so resourceful, resilient, adaptable and optimistic.

Here’s a few of the demonstrated key strengths that I see when I meet an ADF Partner:

Familiar with regular changing priorities
Proven ability to work well under pressure
Demonstrated ability to work to tight deadlines
Key stakeholder management skills
The ability to work autonomously
Comprehensive understanding of logistics
Excellent project management skills

Do any of the above skills sound familiar?

It’s my passion to show you that you are valued and you are an asset to any future employer.

It doesn’t matter if you have either posted into WA or you are posting out of WA – In fact you can be based anywhere in Australia or around the world, we can still meet up – via the Virtual Coaching facility.

In particular, if you are a ‘Return to Work Mum’ with young children, maybe the ‘Virtual Coaching’ facility would be easier for you to access? You can remain in the comfort of your own home, but still access the same quality service – without the need to find or pay for childcare.

Whatever your Career needs are, this service is dedicated to providing you with an easily accessible option. So, if you are maybe considering a new Career or just need a little guidance, support or direction – let me know.

THE TRUE COST OF BEING A MILITARY SPOUSE

Being a military spouse is a job. A job that requires grace and standing on your head while sewing new rank onto your spouse’s 15 sets of uniforms. It’s a job that commands that you hold your head high while certain people question or scoff at the value of your position.

She was friendly, approachable and genuinely cared about helping businesses succeed. She shared a wealth of valuable free and low-cost resources for both start-ups and businesses looking to grow. It was clear she has a wealth of expertise. I would highly recommend connecting with or working with Alison 😊

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Working with Aly has been an absolute game changer for me. When I first contacted Aly, I was feeling stuck and unsure about my next professional steps after a break from the workforce. Aly didn't just help me, she updated my approach, she completely reframed how I view my skills, my background and my value.
Thanks to her structured guidance, strategic advice and incredible insight, I gained the clarity and confidence I need to successfully navigate this transition.
Her depth of knowledge for what is available out there for training and support is rare and precious.
I highly recommend Aly if you want a coach who is deeply analytical, an amazing listener and genuinely invested in your success.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I attended Aly's "She Means Business" workshop and I have to say I got so much out of it!

There was so much to talk about and I gained a lot of clarity and more confidence in talking about my small business I have started.

Aly shared some incredible free and accessible resources with us, alongside her own wealth of knowledge.

We had a smaller group of women which made it really easy and natural to engage with one another and get to know what we all do!

Thanks so much Aly for accommodating such a great space - I hope to see you again!

Many thanks

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Alison was a fantastic facilitator/presenter at the She Means Business course I attended, making every person in the room feel seen and heard. While she had a presentation to work through, it was Alison's personalised and adaptable approach to the content that made the session relevant and engaging for everyone.

I am sure no matter what stage of your career or business you are at, that Alison's experience, wisdom and flexibility will leave you with learnings, insights and importantly - information that you can takeway and do something with!

Personally, I gained some new insights (love those aha moments!), some new tools and some opportunities to access more business advice and expertise.

Thank you Alison for a fabulous and successful morning at The Hub :) Joanna A.
