Testimonials

 

Linda made a significant contribution to two Anglo American internal communication challenges – the launch and ramp-up of our information portal and taking our safety performance to a new level. She worked as an integral part of our internal teams and contributed a great deal to our thinking about key messages and marketing strategies..

Cardeas is an exceptional company.

Mike Byrne,VP, Global Health and Safety, Newmont Mining Corporation

 

It was great to work with Linda from Cardeas in a time that was really challenging for us to understand communication needs, strategies and action plans for primarily safety communication. The service that I received was exceptional, despite the difference in geography and all the deliverables and advice received were always of exceptional quality.  I found it easy to explain to Linda what I thought we needed, and found her comprehensive and very helpful assisting in turning the needs into reality.  I would gladly work with Linda again if the opportunity presented itself.

 

John Roberts – Head of Sustainable Development Operations at the time, Anglo American Operations South Africa

 

Linda’s engagement as one of the key work stream leaders in our Safety Risk Management Programme was critical to successfully launching this education and training process globally. Her insights and experience with communication and stakeholder engagement ensured we stayed in touch with our target audience, and more importantly provided materials that were relevant to their needs. The standards established by Linda with materials, communicating and marketing our programme have successfully been adopted across all our Divisions, geographies and translated into 3 languages. I am confident they will ensure that this transformational initiative has a major impact, not only in Anglo American, but across the mining industry.

It’s a pleasure to work with a consultant who provides a clear, intelligent brief and then encourages us to find ways of improving upon it for the client.

 

Robert James, Director, Envision

 

It is our great pleasure to express our sincerest gratitude in working with a company of your stature. Not only have you displayed unparallel levels of competence and professionalism in the way that we jointly handled a mammoth project for Anglo American plc, but also your deep understanding of the nature of the client pulled us together and continues to do so on ongoing projects. It is indeed a breath of fresh air to work with people of your company’s competence. We are sure it is Cardeas’ second nature to be professional
