CONSULTING
At SEVEN MINDS, we are the unique provider of bespoke solutions via our Consulting Studio. The following insights offer examples of our approach.
An investigation with deep care and reverence:
A CEO received a complaint about one of their senior team members and they required an independent investigation that was sensitive, timely and respectful to all people involved as well as the wider organisation.
The SEVEN MINDS Consulting Team investigated the matter swiftly with compassion, dignity and respect while ensuring the CEO was briefed on all risks throughout the process.
This compassionate approach combined with a trauma-informed mediation session allowed a prompt resolution, affording the CEO the opportunity to minimise any impact on the people involved. Such resolutions help avoid long term duress.

I really appreciated your support and guidance through this challenging time. Your guidance and support truly made the situation much more manageable, and I am grateful for your thoughtful insights and calm approach.
"Thank-you Seven Minds Consulting!"
The SEVEN MINDS Consulting Team dug deep to explore a variety of options, undertaking several engagement activities with team members to understand the root of the emerging issue.
The SEVEN MINDS team identified risks and developed an innovative solution which involved engaging senior team members to develop a financial wellbeing, education and awareness program which addressed the core of the challenge. This program resulted in their team feeling empowered to lead a life towards financial freedom for themselves and their families.
A HR Manager recognised a heightened sense of emotional fatigue and general weariness across their workplace including a marked increase in personal days taken by employees and calls to their employee assistance line. An urgent course of action was required to ensure they were able to retain their valued team members and revitalise their work culture.

Journey
At SEVEN MINDS, we offer bespoke solutions that are transcendent via our Journey Studio. The following insights offer examples of our approach.
A self-care journey:
An executive was facing increased demands on their time. They needed guidance to find a sense of balance in their life so they could meet the demands of their executive role and further study requirements while still having time for their family, elderly parents and their own wellbeing.
The SEVEN MINDS Journey Team supported them by creating a bespoke solution focused strategy which included a personal plan, a self-care plan and comprehensive steps to achieve key goals for the year ahead. Nourished with these tools and our compassionate team by their side, they were able to step onto their path to success with confidence and achieve the results they were seeking.

— Sonia, Regional Manager
I am so thankful to have this amazing opportunity to work with someone as amazing, insightful and passionate as Nicole. She had the belief to push me, invest in me and help me to achieve the best from myself both personally and professionally.
"I am super excited for what will come in my future"
After struggling with the demands of this change, including pressure to comply with a change in their leadership style, they received a complaint against them and were stood down and kept in the dark for the next two weeks. They felt alone and lost.
The SEVEN MINDS Journey Team were engaged to support them through the investigation process. Our bespoke coaching helped guide them through the investigation and we tapped into our SEVEN MINDS Partner Program to ensure they had the right support for their mental and physical health during this time. They appreciated having a professional support person and coach throughout this journey and found the resilience to move through the investigation with dignity and integrity.
A finance team leader had been employed by the same company for over twelve years.
During this time their role had been both challenging and rewarding. However, they were asked to put in more hours to achieve new targets that had been set for their team.

REMUNERATION
At SEVEN MINDS, we provide revolutionary solutions via our Remuneration Studio. The following insights offer examples of our approach.
Medical Industry
— Paul, Chief Financial Officer
The forecasts and information on wages have been critical to understanding how we manage such a large part of our budgets and operations, without the information from Seven Minds our planning and budgeting would not be as robust.
"Working with Nicole has been incredible"
An insightful forecast:
A finance professional entered each budget planning cycle hopeful that their salary and wages forecast was accurate. Despite using their best estimation tools, each year came with an element of risk due to the large remuneration component within the budget. They required a more targeted forecast to minimise this risk.
The SEVEN MINDS Remuneration Team harnessed our carefully developed Forecast Model to create a full remuneration model for their business using econometric principles aligned with custom sourced remuneration, economic and talent market data. This enabled their budget to be more specific with a tighter forecast for the year ahead.
They were offered a slight increase in remuneration, but didn’t know if this was enough or how much someone in a similar position might be earning.
The SEVEN MINDS Remuneration Team were engaged for independent advice on fair remuneration and benefits that could be negotiated as part of the offer. Our team of experts offered highly valuable coaching and knowledge for them to sit at the negotiating table with a confident and informed approach.
A corporate professional had been working at the same company for seven years and had been thinking about changing sectors for at least half of that time. After experiencing some self-doubt, they eventually found the courage to seek a new opportunity and following just two interviews they were offered a bigger and better role in a larger organisation.
