Testimonials
Don’t take our word for it…here’s what our clients say
“Glamorgan Spring Bay Council was pleased with the professionalism of Helen Lever and the LGSG team in the recruitment of the Chief Executive Officer in 2025. As Mayor, I have no hesitation in recommending Ms Lever and her team to undertake recruitment at any level. The guidance the Council recruitment panel received throughout the process was exemplary and carried out with professionalism that was beyond reproach.”
Cheryl ArnolMayor, Glamorgan Spring Bay Council 
“Chris engaged from the start. She knew our Council well and took much of the burden of the advertising collateral on herself, making my role easier and more seamless. After working with many recruitment agencies, I found Chris truly understands the client’s needs and drives the process. It’s very refreshing for time-poor executives to have a capable partner who genuinely seeks the right candidate to fit both the organisation’s culture and leadership needs.”
Fiona LeathamDirector Infrastructure & Major Projects, Hornsby Shire Council 
“What stood out most was the level of communication and support provided throughout the process. From the outset, Steven and Terrey kept us well informed, guided us through each step, and ensured that we always felt supported. Importantly, that support extended beyond the recruitment campaign itself, which speaks volumes about their commitment to building strong and lasting relationships.”
Andrew BrownGeneral Manager, Walgett Shire Council 
“Communication and timely updates were wonderful during our recent engagement with LGSG. My Council was extremely impressed by the professional approach taken by Steven and the entire interview process. Personally, I had many discussions with Steven and he was always frank and forthright, which was truly appreciated. We are so happy with our appointment and look forward to the next part of the process.”

“
MADEC have had the pleasure of working with Chris on several key initiatives that have significantly enhanced leadership and culture within our organisation.
Chris assisted us with Hogan Assessments for all our leaders, providing deep insights and helping us tailor our leadership programs. Her facilitation of a workforce culture survey, including focus groups, was exemplary. Chris ensured meaningful and actionable data collection.
Her leadership training sessions were engaging, insightful, and transformative, creating a supportive environment for growth and collaboration. The feedback from our team has been overwhelmingly positive, leading to tangible improvements in our workplace culture and leadership effectiveness.
Given our experience, we highly recommend Chris for any leadership and culture-building programs organisations may be considering.”
