"Thank you for your recent efforts in helping Breville to appoint a new Sales Representative /Field Manager in the Newcastle region.

Samperi Consulting met with Breville to ensure we knew what qualities the candidate should possess, and also took the time to help us refine those qualities. We were assisted in putting together an excellent job description and felt at all times that we could place faith in Samperi Consulting with minimal input.

Interviews were conducted by Samperi Consulting first in Sydney, and then in Newcastle. This was to prove vital in gauging the qualities in both areas. Upon interviewing in Newcastle, an outstanding candidate was sourced by Samperi Consulting and interviewed. I am pleased to say that an excellent candidate based in the Newcastle area has filled the position.

Our sincere thanks for your efforts with this particular placement. We would have no hesitation in recommending your services in the future."

"Samperi Consulting was employed to assist in the evaluation of current role descriptions and work practices of the support staff. Karina Samperi worked with staff in defining their daily work practices and presented seminars on workplace relations. Karina also conducted individual coaching to assist staff members in defining their daily work practices.

Karina's final project was to rewrite role descriptions and to accommodate changes in staff structure and location. Her assistance, support and advice have been valuable in the change process and in various human resources issues that eventuated. As a result, staff performance has improved and our workplace is more efficient."

"Samperi Consulting Group was contracted to co-ordinate the Lifemap Induction Training Programme on behalf of Zurich Financial Services Australia Limited.

Karina Samperi demonstrated incredible organisational skills in managing the agenda for the Training Programme. In a very fluid programme, Karina excelled at juggling courses, venues, content, presenters and attendees to ensure that everyone was at the right place at the right time. Karina played an integral part in delivering a successful Training Programme.

Samperi Consulting Group provided the organisational skills required to manage this program, as well as assisting in introducing and sourcing several key external presenters for the "soft skills" including team building, leadership and communication to supplement gaps in the programme.

After working with Karina, I would certainly recommend her services to your organisation and would have no hesitation in using her company the next time I need assistance in planning and organising such a project."

"We were pleased to welcome Karina Samperi from Samperi Consulting Group, as a keynote speaker to our recent Professional Development evening. Karina explained how the various changes in her career path had given her the experience to start up her own business. Karina gave us examples of what a true professional she was in her business.

All present agreed that the life of the Office Professional was an ever-expanding career, and Karina's speech was inspirational, and enlightened all those present to go and do bigger and better things in their career. We can all do with the motivation that Karina had to offer us, and to make full use of our own potential and those of our staff."
Kathleen Doyle
New South Wales President/Director
Australian Institute of Office Professionals (AIOP)

"Karina Samperi has consulted with Brigidine College on two occasions. At all times I have found her to be personally very approachable and in touch with the needs of the College.

Recently Karina conducted a workshop for support staff using the VAK model of communication. In preparation for the day, Karina spent time understanding the specific needs of each participant and developing expected outcomes for the session.

For many of our staff these workshops can be quite confronting, as they have not taken part in personal development training previously. Karina has an easy manner that was well accepted by staff. Working carefully to include all participants, Karina developed trust within this group. In contrast to workshops conducted by other facilitators, staff commented on the relevance of the programme to their working relationships."

"During your time with us, you displayed a great deal of professionalism in your work. This was backed up by a sound knowledge of what it takes to make strategic shifts in procedures and direction for companies needing to make changes.

Your ability to deal with all of our staff and the many different personalities allowed you to effortlessly make the changes that were necessary. I was particularly impressed with the way you have been able to influence staff in achieving more through your training skills, support and encouragement."
Janelle Foster, Administration Manager
Christie Group
(Property Management)

"Working with Samperi Consulting has helped us to achieve our goals in a timely manner. Karina's ideas were very practical, and the logical and systematic approach ensured that each step of the project was completed on time. As changes in the office were being made, Karina was supportive and encouraging as we practised the new time management procedures and adjusted to the new systems we had in the office.

Karina created a very effective working relationship in our office, day after day whilst she worked "on" our business. This allowed us to work "in" the business more effectively. We believe that our administration and filing systems plus our office refurbishment are now the best in Sydney. Our business would not be what it is today without Karina's expertise - we have seen our profits increase by over 30% since commencing this work with Samperi Consulting."
