Testimonials

What our clients say

We have been exceptionally impressed with the support and expertise provided by Right Lane. The level of organisation and planning prior to sessions, as well as Tal’s skilled facilitation and knowledge of the legal sector, has meant the sessions have been incredibly productive. The follow up post sessions with the notes have also been of such a high standard.

CEO

Community Legal Services

Right Lane was a fantastic partner to assist us with our Operating Model Review. Afsaneh went above and beyond to engage with our staff and volunteers and deliver us a very comprehensive report which will underpin our Action Plan. Thank you

CEO

Emergency Services organisation

Right Lane held us together whilst we explored our particular ideas around our model in quite a large diverse group. The Right Lane team were able to provide the right care, guidance, structure and process that enabled us to reach our midway point in our foundation phase, applying our model alongside Aboriginal enterprises. The impact the work Right Lane has had on Worthwhile Ventures is best described as reconciliation in action. Without their work and support we would not have seen the diversity of Worthwhile Venture’s business community come together and successfully collaborate and share ideas.

Director

Worthwhile Ventures

We asked Right Lane to help us formulate a vision for what it was we wanted to achieve. We wanted to have an absolutely clear understanding of why we existed and what it was we wanted to achieve. The skills Right Lane brought to the process are firstly extracting the aspirations of board members individually. Then the exciting thing was setting up the pillars for how we were going to achieve that outcome. It’s absolutely made our thinking crystal clear about what we do and what we don’t do. It’s all about the clarity of purpose. It’s that light on the hill.

Chair

Fairley Foundation

… a big thanks for helping us get ready for the Board Strategy Day. We had a quick team huddle at the end of the day and all agreed it could not have gone much better. The Directors were highly engaged, gave us really valuable feedback on the strategic narrative and measurement framework, as well as indicating comfort with all the initiatives, both those on the table and the ones we took off – and the fiscal narrative was really compelling. Complete support in our approach of thinking about the investment we make in the business in terms of how much value can then be added back to the state and no push back on the overall cost.

COO

Victorian Funds Management Corporation

A pleasure to work with Right Lane. A few challenges on our side but Right Lane remained patient and professional the whole way through the project. Always looking for the right approach and solutions too. Thanks RLC.
