Reform-grade Respect at Work, delivered at the heart of government.
NSW Parliament
Culture Plus Consulting was engaged by NSW Parliament to design and deliver Respect at Work and Trauma Informed Response training across its workforce — a flagship reform initiative responding to the Broderick Review of bullying, sexual harassment and sexual misconduct in NSW parliamentary workplaces. This engagement represents a proud achievement in delivering reform-grade Respect at Work training in high-scrutiny environments.
NSW Premier's Department
In an ongoing engagement, Culture Plus Consulting delivers Respect at Work training to the Premier, Ministers and Ministerial staff — a key recommendation of the Goward Review aimed at building respectful, safe and accountable workplaces at the heart of government.

Why this work matters

CEO, Author and Principal Consultant at Culture Plus.
For more than 15 years, I've worked alongside organisations navigating some of their most challenging cultural issues — systemic inequity, resistance to change, misconduct, trust breakdowns.
I've seen what happens when workplaces get this right.
People thrive. Innovation improves. Trust and performance strengthens.
And I've seen the cost when they don't.
Scepticism, loss of talent, regulatory scrutiny and psychological injury.
I believe every person deserves to work in an environment where they feel safe, respected and able to contribute fully, regardless of their gender, background, identity or role. This work is not abstract to me, it is about real people, real consequences and real accountability.
Our approach
We approach this work with both rigour and humanity.
When organisations engage us, they gain a partner who provides clear and considered counsel with respect and works alongside them to design solutions that deliver and stay the course.
Meaningful change doesn't come from good intentions alone, it requires disciplined thinking, honest and safe conversations and leadership courage.
That's the work we do.
