feedback is consistently excellent. Dot's positive energy is
highly infectious, with staff returning fully charged and morale
boosted. Providing this training is a great way to give support

facilitators in the market today. Dot draws on many years of
experience as both a health care professional and educator to
bring organizations workshop and educative processes that are
timely, informative, fun and readily applicable in the current
work environment. My personal experience of working with Dot has
always been to come away feeling energised, optimistic and full
of initiative. I would always recommend her.”

"It is with great pleasure that I submit this testimonial in
respect of my association with Dot Yam, Consultant in
Communication and Human Relations Management.
Central Coast Area Health Community Nursing Services have
utilised Dot's expertise over the past three years on many
occasions for either education or human resource management
issues.
The Dot Yam days as we fondly refer to them have been like an
education explosion within the service. The subject matter for
these sessions is so popular and so useful in all aspects of
life the nurses just keep asking for more. Managers certainly
are noticing increased levels of confidence and leadership being
demonstrated by staff as a result of these dynamic education
programs.
Dot's work with small teams and individuals regarding human
relation's issues is also to be commended. Her counselling
methods are effective and her team building processes are very
successful.
I would highly recommend Dot Yam & Associates for any
consultancy or counselling services required.
In appreciation of a very successful association."

always come up trumps! They feel comfortable with her approach

results.”

is no one else that I have met that has the same energy and
dynamism that Dot has. This is especially noticeable in a
teaching environment. She is extremely committed to her
profession and her professional development and this is
evident in her teaching excellence.
Dot is also an excellent counselor and has gained specific
qualifications to support her role as a counselor. Dot continues
to support her development as a counselor through clinical
supervision and ongoing continuing education.
I would, without any hesitation, highly recommend Dot as an
exceptional teacher and counselor.”

“Dot’s coaching has been instrumental in crystllising my
professional vision and directions. With Dot’s key
attributes of support, trust, encouragement and belief in my
skills and purpose, I have reached a level of awareness in
myself that I would not have achieved without Dot’s support.
With the continued reflection and fine tuning of skills through
the coaching experience, I now feel much empowered in reaching
the potentials in my professional career as well as real balance
in my personal life.”
