What is HR Management?
Human resources management is the strategic approach to the management of an organisation’s most valued asset – its people.
Your people are a direct link to your bottom line and as a business you need to foster a culture that offers encouragement, motivation and productivity. Your people have varying needs for career advancement, support and development to understand and fulfil their roles. Ultimately your team’s performance directly affects your business and its profitability.
Each of your organisation’s policies, induction procedures, performance management programs and procedures, training and operational manuals, showcase your company’s ability to educate, support, and monitor your team’s performance against your goals and their capability.

What Michalle’s clients are saying...
Michalle’s dedication to her industry is unparalleled.
Furthermore her curiosity to think global, to continue to educate and empower and stay ahead of the curve for her clients is unwavering. Michalle steps in when others won’t, she does the long hours and the drives when required for her clients and still makes the time to nurture and embrace the love of her life – her family. Success is not just about the bottom line and turnover – which in her previous role as Director of EastCoast HR has clearly already demonstrated a winning formula. It is in fact more than that. It is the kindness, the compassion, the joy and the journey and this is what I am so proud of by working with Michalle and seeing her honour her needs to ensure she can be there for others with clarity and calm. Michalle is a female representative that we should all be looking at to model. Hard working, genuine, open minded, celebrating diversity and yet understanding the drivers for sustainable success.
