What our clients say...

Client Experiences

The Grove & Co’s ability to work with a diverse group and synthesise their values, ideas and challenges set them apart as leaders within an organisation leadership group. We valued the team’s collaborative approach and getting into the weeds with the Tidal team to assist in building its People and Culture program for its high-growth SaaS technology businesses portfolio. The program creates value to accelerate these businesses’ capabilities and provides a strong framework to build a sustainable and highly effective ‘people first’ model for young entrepreneurs and founders.

Tidal had a very unique need outside the norm of a general engagement for people and culture requirements. The Grove & Co are trusted for their capabilities and breadth of Australian and International experience; we found no one was better suited.

I first worked with Rhonda 18 years ago at Yahoo! Australia during a difficult company merger.
Eighteen years later, Rhonda helped me navigate and build the culture at my e-commerce start-up, The Tot. Balancing the creation of a new brand with aggressive revenue growth meant we needed help establishing a culture amid much market uncertainty. Rhonda came in to help us during this transition.

Her compassionate nature and smart business mind understand business pressures quickly, no matter the industry. She'll push and challenge when required, yet brings a calmness to emotional and intense situations. I credit Rhonda with a lot of our company's early success.

She encouraged me to step outside my comfort zone and expand my leadership skills to accelerate the integration of an entirely new team and two diverse cultures to help drive the company's goals.

When we started working with Rhonda, our leadership team at Labora Group had just formed. Her coaching and insight made the team more effective and more authentic. Five years on, we continue to work with Rhonda as a coach and consultant across our global operating companies.

Rhonda has been a game changer for our organisation!

As an invaluable sparring partner demonstrating real thought leadership in strategic HR related topics, Rhonda has always been a lot of fun to work with. Whoever gets a chance would for sure want to have her on their team–guaranteed!

After working with Rhonda for a number of years, I’m thrilled she is expanding her business to a broader set of clients who can benefit from her world class skill and talent.

She's become a trusted partner while leading through a challenging couple of years. We brainstorm practical ideas and her experience leading large high performing teams comes through strongly.

Rhonda is outstanding. I've increased my awareness both personally and within my leadership.

She advised and supported us on organisational design, interviewing and recruiting, personality testing, team alignment, strategic planning and direction. Rhonda has a broad and unparalleled skill set with a tested history of execution at the highest level. Her and the team go above and beyond. I highly recommend them.

Rhonda is a fantastic coach and strategic advisor to myself and my executive team. She’s also a thought partner on the most critical, confidential, strategic and tactical conversations.
