Building sustainable cultural organisations

Sydney Fringe commissioned J9 Consultants to undertake a strategic review of our organization, and to develop a new three-year Development Strategy. The resulting work provided by Janine has been exceptional and her insight invaluable to our organisation’s future growth.

Working with Janine is an absolute pleasure and delight. We are thankful that Janine is staying involved in our project in a mentoring capacity for our Development team, to ensure that the implementation plan is delivered and that our organization grows in capacity as well as size.

I can’t recommend Janine and the work she does enough.

Janine brought her deep understanding, patience and energy to the work we did together and helped us build a solid foundation for Moa Arts. As an Indigenous, community controlled arts and culture centre our needs were unique and our abilities were strong but under- valued. Janine quickly formed a strong bond with the board, the arts workers and the artists and pulled together a program that was relevant, purposeful and transformative for our organisation.

Janine is a true professional and absolute pleasure to work with. She focuses on achieving client success while guiding them toward alternate methods when beneficial. She excels at communicating with all stakeholders and has expertise in legal, marketing, organizational structure and HR to transform ideas into functional organizations. Her flexibility and understanding of Local Government, plus willingness to adapt, meant she continued supporting us even when the project changed.

I have no hesitation in recommending Janine and J9 Consulting.
