Testimonials:

“Mel dos Remedios has worked with Gunz over the last 4 months in launching a Health and Wellness Program. Its impact was immediate. From the first presentation at our sales conference it was a success, as by morning tea everybody was reaching for the apples rather than the pastries!

Our fortnightly sessions were insightful and interesting and provided us with common sense options and healthy alternatives. Mel encouraged individuals to put things in place at their own pace, and make small changes at a time to see long term results.

As an organisation we have seen a change in culture.  As a management team we have seen the right results and are committed to make health and wellbeing an ongoing initiative. Thank you Mel for joining us in looking after our most valuable asset- our people”- Alison Nolan, HR Manager, Gunz Dental

“Mel has the X factor. Her sessions are fantastic and always popular with both professional and admin staff. She has made a real difference to our culture and our people and continues to work closely with us. We almost see her as one of the Gadens staff these days.” - Ming Chan, Professional Development Manager, Gadens lawyers

“I would highly recommend Mel dos Remedios and the NRG Solutions work life balance workshop. I found it most interactive and I highly valued the 2008 work / life balance plan. I hope to now put it to some use with my family, friends and work colleagues.”  - Fahrena Mitchelson,National Manager Australia and New Zealand,Vero Insurance
