How do you like to make a difference?
My ultimate intent is to help people find their own personal style that connects their deep values, natural talents, and opportunities in front of them so that they are able to achieve their personal aspirations and continue to bounce forward beyond the challenges the world throws at them in and outside of the workplace.
What do you enjoy most about working at Mapien?
The friendships I’ve developed with colleagues and clients since my first day in 2002 is a testament to the culture of Mapien and how important the part we play in each others’ lives, supporting each other through work and personal challenges.
How do you create people impact?
Combining science with deep care for the people I work with and a relentless commitment to achieving results.
What do you think is key to 40 years in business?
Love the people you work with.
Blake has been at Mapien for over 10 years, and leads our Organisational Development team of psychologists. Blake is based in our Brisbane office and partners with clients across Australia.
