Noreen has developed a strong suite of HR policies and structures to ensure Store Managers and owners are fully compliant with all relevant legislation and best practice, which is vital for any retail business. But where Noreen really excels is in engaging with people working in all levels of retail to ensure business plans are achieved and indeed exceeded.

I would recommend Noreen’s approach to any retailer who is serious about developing a customer-focussed culture in their business

Richard Lennon, Regional Manager, Musgrave Group

Noreen’s knowledge and expertise in HR has helped us implement a really effective "Performance Management" process in our store. This has empowered our department supervisors and managers with the skills to coach and develop their teams to perform at the highest levels.

This doesn't happen by accident; Noreen gave us the tools and the training to make this work for ourselves. This process has, over the years resulted in good people progressing up through the ranks to become great leaders.
