Thank you for visiting our website. My name is Stephen Moore and I am the Founder and Managing Director of Optimum Performance.

I am proud to say that I have been a Human Resources practitioner for more than 30 years, including 16 years in corporate life and 14 years in my own business.

As a consultant I have been fortunate to work and interact with a diverse range of Human Resources professionals, academics, CEO's, executives and line managers in many different organisations throughout Australia, New Zealand and South East Asia, while also being privileged to visit and benchmark with leading US organisations including Harley-Davidson, FedEx and NASA for more than a decade.

My long-term association with the Human Resources community has clearly identified that while there will always be a myriad of challenges to overcome, by far the single greatest issue facing most practitioners is the capacity to operate and contribute at the strategic level of their organisation.

In order to meet this "ultimate challenge" I have researched and identified six core attributes that when effectively combined with existing capabilities will enable every Human Resources Leader to develop, achieve and embed strategic capability within their HR Department.

To assist we offer an extensive range of evaluation and survey tools, training workshops, custom-designed reference manuals, executive education and engagement tools, project management coordination and facilitation, detailed strategy development and expert coaching and advice.
