At Workplace Success, we provide a range of professional values-based facilitation and leadership services for leaders wanting to build a successful organisation.
Define your organisation’s values
Let Workplace Success help you define your organisation’s values. Having values allows you to create a point of differentiation. What may be important to some organisations will not be important to others. It enables you to stand for and operate from a unique set of shared principles.
Defining your values creates a framework for positive attitudes and behaviour (workplace culture). It builds trust, accountability and reliability in how your organisation is perceived by clients, staff, suppliers and the general community.
Our professional team works closely with you to customise a participative process that best suits your needs.
Define behaviours for your organisation’s values
Once you know your organisation’s values, we can facilitate a consultative process with relevant stakeholders to define three key behaviours for each of your organisation’s values.
Defining the behaviours for each value provides everyone with a clear, consistent and transparent performance framework. It enables you to integrate your values into your organisation’s performance development, leadership and culture.
Values-based Workplace Culture Development
In this process, we work closely with relevant stakeholders to develop and embed the vision, strategy and values of your organisation into a set of workplace culture principles.
We give you practical tools and strategies to transform your values into measurable behaviours.
Leadership Programs
Values-based Leadership Program
This program has been developed to inform and enable people to lead and manage effectively in a values-based framework. It provides leaders with the knowledge, skills and expertise to build a values-based culture and to create and lead a collaborative and productive workforce.
Values-based Self-Leadership Program
This program has been developed to inspire and enable people to take responsibility for leading themselves in a values-based framework. Participants define their personal values and develop and integrate strategies to work in alignment with the organisation’s values.
Values-based Leadership Support
One-on-one values-based leadership support is available with Carol Malcolm via Skype or in person. These sessions provide participants with the opportunity to reflect on, discuss and develop their ability to lead themselves and their organisations in a values-based framework.
Carol is focused on enabling leaders to fulfil their potential and supporting them to build a responsive, sustainable and successful organisation.
“I have worked with Carol a couple of times; firstly as an employee of Saltwater Freshwater Arts Alliance when Carol introduced us to the values of the organisation and to our own personal values. This experience showed just how important values are in all of our lives, and not just within an organisation. Secondly, as Founder of Heart and Soul Foundation working with vulnerable women who have been through the trauma of domestic and sexual violence. I approached Carol to facilitate a personal values workshop as part of our ‘Enrichment Program’ in 2015. This was new information for these women and quite challenging but extremely rewarding as they realised that they could choose values to embed into all aspects of their lives. This is life changing, as the women create their values, this creates a solid foundation for their life to grow from. A life with stronger boundaries and more clarity about how they would like to live and who they will let in. Carol is an excellent facilitator, always considerate and thoughtful, bringing out the best in the people she is working with.”

Heart and Soul Foundation
I have worked with Carol for around 15 years. She does an excellent job providing supervision and support to our senior staff and is a fantastic source of quality advice in regard to Human Resource issues.
Carol helped us to implement a Values- based Recruitment and Selection program and it has been one of the best things we have ever done! Since implementing the Values-based program we rarely have any staffing “mistakes”, which is testament to the recruitment program’s efficacy. I have always found Carol to be very professional and ethical with very reasonable rates. I can’t recommend Workplace Success strongly enough.

Carol is a brilliant business professional who has exceptional skills, knowledge, energy and insight to successfully translate a business requirement into a values-based process that makes sense, has appealing creative direction and smart usability. The implementation of Carol’s process has enabled the MENtors Project to maintain highly positive outcomes for whatever challenge is thrown at us. What we appreciated most about working with Carol is her ability to keep it real, keep everyone happy and deliver the expected results and then some!

Being an Aboriginal organisation, values are integral to the way that the Saltwater Freshwater Aboriginal Arts Alliance works. I have to say, the workshops that we did with Workplace Success were transformational to me personally as I had never really reflected on what my own personal values are and to extend that to defining how an organisation behaves was very powerful. Carol Malcolm worked with me and my staff to help define our own personal values and the organisation’s values to ensure that there was alignment.
A lot of organisations list respect, integrity and honesty as there values but fall short of truly integrating those values into their policies and practices. With Workplace Success, we implemented the Values-based Recruitment and Selection process and a Leadership program to ensure that our existing and incoming staff were aligned with the values and culture of the organisation.
Carol was a pleasure to work with. She worked very closely with me to deal with challenging HR issues professionally as well as in line with the organisation’s values.
