Barrett Consulting Group
www.barrett.com.au
Sue Barrett has been associated with the VIS since its inception. Her aim and that of her company, BARRETT Pty Ltd, is to help VIS athletes promote themselves effectively and earn what they are worth beyond the track, field or pool. The world of corporate sponsorship is very different from elite training, and although they take to it quickly, the athletes have to learn how to effectively self promote, access corporations and negotiate with a strong sense of their own value.

Sue Barrett launched BARRETT in 1995 after holding senior positions with a leading consultancy and recruitment company and is best known for her work in creating High Performing Sales & Service Teams and has developed a unique position in the market place with IP specifically in the Australian Sales Competency space. Within two years, Sue's business won the Telstra & Victorian Government Small Business Award. Sue and her team apply the latest research and market findings in sales, service, management, coahing, team work and leadership integrating a variety of assessment protocols including emotional intelligence (EI) with skill, knowledge, behaviour, values, process and strategy. Sue and her team share in common the desire to help people grow and be successful through greater self-awareness, understanding and purposeful action. Key to their success is working with the whole person to develop their potential to engage in productive work relationships with the bigger picture in mind. This approach aligns them very well with the VIS and its goals and values
