What we believe about service...

We believe in doing the right thing for our clients. We build long term relationships with the people we work with because we are jolly nice people and very good at what we do.

If we are giving our clients what they need, they will tell other people about us, which is good for our business.

If our clients are telling other people about us, we can just focus on what we are great at – designing data driven talent management strategies.

What some of our clients said about us

MD
Trainiac:

Through our work with EYT we have had our eyes opened. Thinking of a business without Talent Management done properly is like thinking of a business without a product or cash flow. We see Talent Management as THE strategy. As a direct result of the tireless work and effort by EYT we now have a clear strategy, a people structure that works, functional role clarity, clear measures and a deep understanding of our core competencies. Performance is on the up-and-up and hiring risks have been dramatically diminished. As a consequence of the great work by EYT, our future looks brighter. I recommend EYT enthusiastically and without reservation.

Head of Selling
Trainiac:

I am not often disposed to recommend consultants as we have found at Trainiac that they rarely understand our business sufficiently well and that the best results more often come from within. However, EYT commenced an engagement with us in January this year. We acted as a ‘guinea pig’ in many respects for small business people strategies, as their current and past engagements have been with large corporates. In terms of consultants, I have never before experienced a company who has gained such an insight into our business and has taken such a holistic approach to the business as a whole. EYT has been based at our offices and has involved every member of the business in defining the success profile, role profiles, behavioural competencies, performance management processes; 10:10 meet structures, behavioural coaching, and recognition and incentive schemes; all completely integrated and aligned to our business strategy.

Head of Supporting
Trainiac:

I have recently had the pleasure and good fortune of working with EYT on the design and implementation of an integrated, end-to-end talent management solution. Trainiac is now in a position to make informed decisions about our talent based on data and have all the necessary foundations in place to “find, grow and keep” our people as a result. EYT's professionalism, integrity, dedication, passion and work-ethic cannot be faulted. I have no hesitation in recommending them to EVERY business.

Head Client Services
Nedbank:

I have worked with EYT on multiple initiatives over the past years. Most recently, they have helped us with a comprehensive review of our people practices in the light of Nedbank’s service strategy. As external consultants EYT has an amazing ability to integrate into the organisation and work and lead “as part of the team”. They have managed to analyse the issues in a clear, simple and compelling way and their insights have helped develop a programme which has found buy-in and support across the organisation and will over the next year help transform Nedbank’s ability to deliver on its service aspirations. We look forward to delivering on this programme with EYT’s input and guidance. EYT is one of the few HR consultancies I have come across in my career that has the ability to quickly grasp and understand core business issues and translate them into actionable people implications and requirements.

Head: Strategic Transformation and Change
Absa Contact Centres:

EYT have been actively involved in running highly complex projects within the Absa Contact Centre. EYT’s performance on these initiatives has been outstanding, delivering on the tight timelines and within budget on every occasion. Their level of professionalism and ability to bring order and simplicity to extremely complicated initiatives will be an asset to any organisation employing their skills. They are highly recommended, and as individuals have outstanding integrity.

Head of Sales
Absa Contact Centres:

It is not often that I find myself overly impressed with the performance of outsourced professional services, EYT have however succeeded in doing just that. I have had the pleasure of working with EYT on a number of projects over the past few months. Their planning and execution is world class, they bring skills to the table which add immediate value and long term sustainability to most business environments.

I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for a company that delivers timeously on their promises and provides skills and insights all too seldom seen in today's market place.

Executive director Soul City
IHDC and "Heartlines":

I have no hesitation in recommending EYT for any work they apply for. In my experience they demonstrate the highest standards of professionalism and delivery. I would be happy to be contacted for any further information.

Chief Operating Officer
“Heartlines”:

Heartlines, an initiative of the Mass media Project, has had an ongoing relationship with EYT since early 2007. They are well known to the executive and management team of Heartlines . They have played an important role in the ongoing strategic and operational development of Heartlines, and have worked with us on a number of initiatives. We have enjoyed an excellent working relationship with EYT, and we value highly their integrity, their work-ethic, and the skills that they bring to the task at hand. We look forward to working with them in the future.

Director
Allan Gray Orbis Foundation, ex-CEO YDT:

We sincerely believe in the importance of your work and specifically the strategic workshop you did with us. It not only made us believe in our mission and vision, but also has indirectly cascaded positively into changing hundreds of young people for the better. Not only did your work help us to distill our thoughts, but we were able to understand the landscape and what direction our clients were embarking on.

CEO
Old Mutual Corporate Services, India:

Melissa is an excellent HR professional who has worked effectively at senior levels in multiple organisations. She is well respected in the industry.

I have had the pleasure of working directly with her on multiple occasions in a variety of roles. We worked closely together on a new business venture and she was a very valuable member of the start-up team. She played a key role in shaping the HR practices for the future and providing on-going support to the project. She is diligent, well organised and effectively brings her years of experience to bear in the delivery of her work. She is passionate about her profession, she puts in the extra miles and most importantly her advice is well thought through. In summary a good person to work with, who would be an asset on any leadership team.
