Bringing together the best in ‘people’ and ‘purpose’ strategies to maximise your organisational performance

Empathy is one of the core tenants of how we operate here at HumanEx. We understand the frustrations, headaches and pain points in a business and love nothing more than to take that away from them through the services we offer. We are honest and forthright; we only want the best for our clients and our team. Trust is at the heart of all we do.
We also want to make a positive difference to our communities through Business for Good initiatives; we are strongly focused on driving positive social impact and we love the way purpose initiatives can enhance overall organisational performance.

We want to ensure that business owners can sleep well knowing all their HR documentation and processes are legally sound.
Our highly experienced and skilled team of executives, facilitator’s and HR professionals are committed to helping organisations achieve success through improving culture and strategy.
Lindsey
Director
Over the past fifteen years, my passion has been working with organisations to support them achieve their goals and aspirations, specifically focusing on their people to create happy and healthy workplaces. From developing strategic business plans, coaching and planning, delivering leadership and development modules to achieve desired objectives and create a company culture they are proud of.
I have worked across multiple industries from FMCG, public and private health and professional services across the globe including the UK, Switzerland, Australia and New Zealand.
When I’m not working, I’m spending time with our 3 children, mostly as peace keeper and negotiator and try to spend as much time with them outside in our beautiful country.
Kate
Director
I have over 20 years’ experience working in complex service delivery and solution design organisations across both commercial and not for profit enterprises. I have a strong focus on strategic development and business transformation, and I am passionate about purposeful and measurable change.
I am experienced in setting and delivering strategic growth objectives with a keen interest in evaluating complex multi stakeholder issues. I have been fortunate enough to work in a range of diverse sectors and including international logistics, travel and tourism, event management, FMCG and professional services both here in New Zealand and Australia.
I have a sound understanding of Board Governance obligations and fiduciary responsibility and have direct Board room experience as both a Chief Executive and Director.
I enjoy spending time with family and friends, in particular socialising over good food. After hours I am typically with my two daughters, binge watching decent Netflix thrillers, or getting outdoors. I also try hard to make time to read, write and paint.
Wendy
Head of Customer Experience
Coming from a strong background in operations, account management and events, I understand the importance of delivering an exceptional customer experience.
Committed to engaging in work with a purpose, I have many years’ experience in roles that provided both professional and community services, with a focus on making a difference to people’s lives. From heading Operations in a Business Coaching Company, to Managing a NFP organisation, team and volunteers, my experience has taught me plenty about people, processes, and purpose.
Project based work is my passion, in particular budgeting, implementation, systems, and automation, ensuring efficiency and effectiveness from engagement to completion.
Living on a lifestyle block with 2 busy football teens has me juggling gardening, drenching, driving, side-line cheering and producing copious amounts of continuous food for all.

In my spare time I provide a comprehensive children’s taxi service and enjoy hanging out with my family, fitness and trying to master the art of Pilates.
Dan
Facilitator / Instructor
I have been working in the MHFA space for the last 7 years. Starting as a mental health first aider, before upskilling to become an instructor.
My main goal is to have at least one mental health first aider in every family across Aotearoa New Zealand.
Using my lived experience with depression and anxiety, I found myself working for the Counties Manukau DHB, facilitating MHFA workshops and helping to share knowledge and increase awareness about mental health and mental health first aid. I have also spent time working for Lifeline as their National Trainer.
On my days off, you will find me swimming or running and hanging out with friends and family to relax.
