Case Study

Health and Mental Health with Tuna Blue Facilitation, Fremantle WA

“Thea never fails to deliver on those complex projects that require huge amounts of collation, analysis and synthesis. Her ability to extract meaning from desktop exercises and consultation outputs always adds the needed value to our engagement projects. Working with Thea is a joy and she provides a critical level of rigor to our team.”
