Feedback from Clients
From industry owners to recognised leaders - we’ve evolved together with purpose
People say change is hard, however, It has been much more achievable when we have had the opportunity to engage with Alina and Mel from Holistic Management.
HMC were able to coach and mentor us through fundamental changes in our service. We strongly value this partnership and believe Alina and her team invest in their clients to attain maximum effectiveness and develop the skills to achieve sustainable success.
"Working with Alina Dan ... has been integral in embedding Exceeding practices ... we thank Alina and her team for their mentorship and support"
Just wanted to say a HUGE thank you for your amazing training and support!
It was wonderful having you here with us and I can see a positive impact already…
Great to challenge our thinking and practices.
I’m always excited about our visits with Alina. She is an inspiring person who is very easy to listen to and down to earth”
"We have a Holistic Diary and it’s working well. On each day there are sections -educator’s to do/ follow ups, family to do/follow ups, admin to do/follow up. A blank section on the right-hand side of the page for any messages or documentation, then the lower half of the page it has 7 sections for the 7 quality areas where we write down dot points and this is used for the QIP. We fill in a weekly critical reflection sheet on a Friday -what’s working well, what’s not working, educator’s reflection, children’s reflection, does the environment need to change etc. We will continue with these room diaries next year -they work well."
“We engaged with Holistic Management for coaching and mentoring, as our goal was to achieve Exceeding. Depth and documenting reflections were not our strengths, but Mel coached us in documenting reflections and made the cycle a central focus, which greatly strengthened our practices. Every session, she inspired us, and we would walk out ready to kick goals. We implemented so much, especially with our Children’s Council, and developed a Wellbeing Curriculum. In 2025, we underwent A&R and proudly achieved a 7/7 result!"
"We are absolutely thrilled with the Holistic Management & QIP Program. The service we've received has been outstanding—by far the best investment we've made for our service! It has truly been a life-changing product!"
Holistic Management & Consultancy -Leadership Colour Profiling Workshop Testimonial“Thank You so much to Alina for making it so engaging and interesting. I will be looking more into how to deal with all Staff Profiling, I found this so interesting. Everyone needs to know how to deal with all these colourful people!”
We are writing to thankyou all for everything you do to support centres in achieving the best possible outcomes everyday – for educators, children and their families.
Your passion, expertise, dedication and continuous support is truly appreciated. Being a part of the HMC group has been invaluable to ensuring best practices are embedded at all times with the support of up to date resources and consultants who are experts in the field. This has enabled our centre to recently achieve Exceeding in our A&R – and we are looking forward to continuing the drive forward. Your amazing team of consultants, resources along with you Alina – a passionate driving force for our industry is not unnoticed. You’re a true inspiration!!
Thankyou doesn’t seem enough – please know we are truly thankful for all that you all do.
“We had a great time at the seminar on Saturday and I have to say Alina is by far the best presenter I have ever seen. I didn’t walk away confused at all just motivated”
Alina and her team have been amazing... always looking at ways to achieve the best out of our services operations... "a wealth of knowledge."
"Mel's advice was simple: Listen and follow my guidance. She coached us through the three Exceeding themes, and we proudly recieved our first Exceeding rating".
Holistic QIp - I love having everything in one place. The Evidences Report is great. I found it very helpful for sharing it with other team members and track our progress.
Holistic Management has given us the tools to create a culture of reflection. Our leadership team now takes the time to look at what’s working and where we can improve, not just in our QIP, but also in how we work with educators every day.
We’ve learned to listen better and respond more thoughtfully, creating an environment where feedback and reflection are part of our ongoing success.
