Testimonials

“Di is a true innovator and driver of converting great ideas into tangible outcomes. She’s incredible with bringing the entrepreneurial flair out of young talent, and I’m a living example of her work in action (as a geeky engineer she helped me get out of my box!). I’ve had the pleasure of working with her over the years and I thoroughly recommend her to anyone wanting to start unleash the inner-entrepreneur and take their career into their own hands”.

“Di Thompson, literally saved my life and my family. When I was unwell, I tried to balance our business and my family life, but was unable to keep on top of things. As a result, both my family and our business suffered.

Di was not only an amazing business coaching resource, she walked the talk – she stepped in to manage our business when I wasn’t there.

Her knowledge, insight, big picture thinking and substantial business experience was invaluable. After many months of important advice, direction and coaching, Di led the charge when we had decided that it was time to sell the business. She handled everything and took the sting and the stress out of the process.

She ensured we had ticked all the boxes, crossed all the T’s and dotted all the I’s.

Without her help I would hate to think what sort of a business, financial and emotional mess we would have been left with today.

Her expertise, genuine care, encouragement and understanding was exactly what the ‘doctor ordered’.

I am now well and excited about my career and future. We have our finances under control and have Di to thank for it.

She continues to guide, develop and assist me with continuity of direction, goals and clarity.

If you are lucky enough to work with Di you too will feel nurtured, listened to, supported and most important – no longer alone”.

“During my time participating in the EDS Rotary IT Careers Forum I was inspired by Di’s enthusiasm for educating and motivating youth through hands on programs and facilitating professional mentor relationships. Di was able to draw on her extensive professional network to the benefit of both the students involved in the Forum and also the mentors participating. She has a great deal of experience and a wealth of knowledge that would provide a significant asset to similar youth programs.”less

“It’s rare to find someone who genuinely cares and who weaves that empathy and understanding so seamlessly into both their personal life and their business. That person is Di Thompson. If ever I thought I had a guardian angel, someone always watching out for me and watching over me, it would be Di. She’s been an invaluable guardian, providing not only business advice but contacts, leads and ideas that have allowed me to think more deeply about my business and how to improve it.”

“Wallmans Lawyers engaged Di Thompson as an IT Consultant for an 11 month period March 2009 to January 2010. At that time Wallmans technology was in transition and required a high level audit and plan for the future. Di Thompson has vast experience in strategic and project planning as well as managing and deploying technology refreshes as borne out by her work at Wallmans.”
