“Mim is a highly skilled, engaging and thoughtful facilitator. ChangeUp gave me the opportunity and the tools to reflect deeply on my personal leadership journey and goals in all aspects of my life (work, family, community) and to learn from a group of inspiring people. It is a unique personal development experience that I highly recommend.”

“I gained and grew so much over the course of the program, actively taking my learnings and implementing them in my life and also sharing them with my team; it was incredible to watch them flourish. The program provided world-class content, a safe space, a passionate and committed community and allowed deep and authentic connection with all participants. Your inclusive, genuine, thoughtful, curious and courageous leadership style is both infectious and inspiring. It brought out the best in me and made a significant difference in my life.”
Hunter Johnson, CEO The Man Cave (NFP)

“ChangeUp gave me ‘permission' to be my personal best and to be proud of my life and career achievements. Change-Up is set apart from other courses I have done – it builds upon themes over time, is highly interactive with other successful executives, and creates an honest, warm and safe environment to deep dive into your personal leadership style. At the completion of ChangeUp, I had a real sense of ‘maturity' – like I had transformed slowly but surely into the confident, self-aware leader. Mim has a unique style and presence that facilitated a wonderful exploration within all of us personally and a tight bond within our group – one that is everlasting.”
Nicky Long, CEO, Guide Dogs Vic
-
“The combination of your personal leadership, an extraordinary group of people, and the content shared in and out of program time, was the perfect recipe for me to 'change up' my own leadership. Throughout the program, and in the time since, I have noticed subtle but significant changes in my clarity of thought, depth of confidence in action and willingness to challenge convention and explore new approaches. I have adopted a number of key strategies that are having a positive effect on my professional and personal life. There are not many programs I can point to during my career that have made such a discernible change at such a deep level. I warmly recommend the ChangeUp program without reservation.”
Julie Reilly, CEO, Australians investing in Women

“The ChangeUp program provides an inspiring and supportive space in which leaders can unlock their understanding of their own values and passions …. Mim’s programs helps participants understand that work-life engagement is underpinned by congruent consistency in ‘who we are’ and ‘what we try to achieve’ across all domains of our life. These factors are now widely regarded as key to transformative leadership. Mim uses a best practice approach to her program, using up-to-date leadership frameworks, made interesting by a diverse and engaging homework program ...”

“I didn’t quite know what to expect from ChangeUp. For someone looking to improve their self-awareness, direction and confidence, I couldn’t recommend it more highly. For time poor professional people, juggling a career and a family, you need to enrol immediately.”

“I heard Mim speak at a recent lunch about why we must all find our influence. Mim made a huge impact. She connected with the audience in a way that was highly relevant to them and inspired them to consider aspects of their own lives in light of her advice. She was engaging, motivating and made us all want to be the best we can be.”

“Your keynote speaker, Mim Bartlett was absolutely fabulous. She was inspiring, progressive, current and so authentic! I felt motivated and energised by her enthusiasm and passion for making a difference in the world. I feel so grateful and privileged to have shared such a thought-provoking afternoon with you all. Thank you!”

“Mim Bartlett gave an address at our school recently to mark International Women’s Day. Her speech, for an audience of students, staff, parents and past pupils, was engaging and thought provoking. Mim was easily able to hold the attention of this diverse group with her warmth, good humour and clarity of delivery. Her message about the need to find and celebrate our ‘inner change-maker’ resonated with adults and girls alike ... Mim is an inspiring woman who gives great witness to the fact that our professional lives, our family and personal lives, and our passions and dreams can and should intersect; she defines the identification of this intersection as critical in leading a fulfilled life, and role models the same.”
Dr Susan Stevens, Former Principal, Loreto Convent

“Your talk was wonderful – the topics you raised were so interesting and thought-provoking. You captivated the audience with the story about your journey of influence and gave each and every one of us something to think about and work on in our lives. You showed me how it is possible to tackle the issues that are important to us as individuals and try and make a difference in the world. You made such an impact yesterday and for that I sincerely thank you.”
Andrea James, Former Friends of Melbourne Grammar Wadhurst President
