Business Development

by Owen Harvey, Executive Director

As we are all aware, business development is the lifeblood of businesses providing consulting services. We have a number of senior people who are focused on ensuring that opportunities and leads are chased down and converted into fee paying jobs for our associates. This is all one area where associates can assist us in identifying new or additional work.

When working directly with councils, associates are in a great position to identify potential opportunities such as:

a variation to their existing contracts new project opportunities or identifying council gaps in resources, service delivery or other organisational needs.

Reflect Reconciliation Action

CT Management Group RAP

Following the launch of our RAP in November 2019 the implementation of actions under the plan have commenced.

As a member of the RAP community, CT Management Group joined over 1000 dedicated corporate, government and not-for-profit organisations that have formally committed to reconciliation through the RAP program since its inception in 2006.

CT Management Group Chairman, Jeff Kennett AC said “the RAP was developed by CT Management Group to extend and deepen our relationship with the broader Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities within the regions we engage and undertake projects.”

A key action in the plan is to “conduct a review of cultural learning needs within our organisation”.
