Martin Ringer Consulting ltd is a management consulting and leadership development company with bases in New Zealand, France and Australia. The Director, Martin Ringer, BE (Hons), M.Ed.(Member ISPSO - International Society for the Psychoanalytic Study of Organizations), has operated his own independent management consulting and training & development business for 15 years. The business operated from Perth, Western Australia for nine years before moving to Auckland, New Zealand in 2000. Since 2004 increasing international business led to the establishment of a base in France and the re-opening of a base in Australia. The consulting business is a small, specialized enterprise with a significant strength in working with complex overt and covert issues in corporate settings. All engagements with clients are established on the understanding that organizations are complex dynamic and unpredictable enterprises that defy the full understanding of any one person. The company specializes in collaborating in-depth with clients to explore the subtleties of the issues that need to be addressed, whilst at the same time, honoring the need for organizations to limit the amount of time and money they expend with consultants. Successful outcomes are achieved not with the competence of the consultants alone, but with committed and robust collaboration between consultant and client.
