Stacey teaches people how to get the kind of information that shows them how well their business is doing and how to make it do better…

Informed decision making is only in part about data and fact, numbers and charts. It’s also about a change inside ourselves that opens us more to seeking, interpreting and using objective information, before we give in to our fixation to find solutions. Performance measurement is only in part about balance sheets, scorecards and computer systems. It’s also about changing how we define what our organisations should do in society, how we seek information about organisational performance and how we allow that information to show us how to change our organisations in the best way we can. Stacey works with her partners at the leading edge of business performance measurement to:

  • bring together knowledge from many inter-related fields of organisational change to give you abilities and insights about organisational performance from a technical perspective and a human perspective
  • create concrete and practical models, techniques and tools that make the process of performance measurement simpler and to play a more useful role in how you and your team influence your organisation’s success
  • work with you in a way that starts from your own knowledge and experiences in organisational performance measurement and challenges you to more clearly understand what you are really trying to achieve, for yourself, your team and the organisation as a whole, through measurement
A rare collection of skills, knowledge and qualifications that make Stacey’s approach not just about the technical side of performance measurement…
What's unique about Stacey's approach to performance measurement is that it’s not just about the technical aspects of how to measure performance. Most of her approach is the human side of performance measurement, how people feel about measurement and performance, and the kind of change process they find themselves going through when involved in it. And she has come to this via a background of:
  • A technical grounding with a Bachelor of Science, Post-Graduate Diploma in Statistics and currently doing a PhD. • A career that began as a research statistician in the Australian Bureau of Agriculture and Resource Economics and the Queensland Government Statistician’s office.
  • A change to Queensland Rail, to work more directly with people, helping them improve the quality of their decision making through better use of data and information, and in this role developing those softer skills of group facilitation, communication, relationship building, adult learning and leadership.
  • Becoming an independent specialist in the field of organisational performance measurement, sharpening her skills in project management, leadership, coaching, business management, product design and development.
Stacey believes in taking authority for how our organisations affect the beauty, dignity and balance in our world, now and far into the future.

Stacey's values, and the values of those that she partners with, are that:

  • all people are equal, having the same right to be heard, to make mistakes, to learn, to express who they are without judgment
  • we must take responsibility for the consequences of our actions, for how those actions (or non-actions) impact on the rights of others and the state of the planet, both now and in the future
  • the search for wisdom or truth, to find the knowledge that gives us more influence over what our organisations contribute to the societies and ecosystems of which they are an integrated part
  • we are our organisations, and as such we are the only people that can transform our organisations so they better serve the needs of our societies and ecosystems
