MEET KASIA

Experienced HR advice, without the unnecessary complexity.

I’m Kasia Groves, founder of KG2 Consulting and an experienced HR consultant and fractional people leader.

I work directly with business owners, boards, and leadership teams to resolve workplace challenges, strengthen people management and put practical structures in place that support the way the business needs to operate.

My role often begins when people matters have become more complex than they should be: whether that involves performance concerns, unclear accountability, inconsistent management practices, organisational growth or significant workplace change.

You need to wear a lot of hats when running a business, and it is reassuring to know that there is someone you can trust with the people you care about. Kasia has strong interpersonal communication skills, which helps foster a positive work environment and effectively manage employee relations. She is excellent at helping to resolve conflicts and ensuring everyone involved achieves the best outcome possible. Whether you have a small or large team to manage, I highly recommend Kasia as your HR coach/ consultant."

    -Dr SooJin Nam, Eyecare Kids

  • "Kasia has a wealth of knowledge about human resources, workplace laws etc. - areas a small business owner cannot be an expert in, but is expected by staff to be well versed in. Kasia is quick to respond, personable, and although I only had a brief transaction with Kasia, speaking with her is like talking to your best friend who understands what you and your problems are. She has an amazing ability to make you feel comfortable in uncomfortable times, but also is able to give sound and effective advice."

    -Dr Jessica Chi, Eyetech Optometrists

  • "Over the past three years, Neolink has seen tremendous growth and KG2 Consulting have been a key partner in ensuring we have a tailored HR strategy for a fast-growing business. With such an increase in staff members, Kasia has worked closely with Directors, general management, and our staff here at Neolink to ensure we had all the right provesses and policies in place to execute an HR strategy that was scalable for the business. Kasia is someone that I personally highly recommend to not only other business owners, but also to all HR teams - she brings a fresh perspective and tangible solutions that deliver strong results and engagement from all stakeholders."

    -Sean Crook, Director, Neolink

  • "We are extremely pleased with service provided by KG2 Consulting. Kasia's customised consultation approach, tailored to our business size, has been pivotal in helping us scale up in a healthy and sustainable manner. Kasia is an excellent communicator, fostering a sense of confidence within our team. Her professionalism and expertise have made a significant impact on our growth, and we highly recommend her services."

    -Michelle Park, CEO, LOHAS Australia

  • "I employed Kasia’s services after an injury that had some details that were in dispute. I was given her details from a colleague and when I made contact she responded rapidly even though she was traveling. This was welcome and the advice was logical and helped put my concerns into legal context. She helped with communication with my insurance people and with myself in managing a staff member’s resignation. This help was invaluable and it was so nice to speak to someone who knew the law in and out. If I am ever navigating the workplace relations landscape again, she will be the first person I make contact with. 100% recommend."

    Martin Robinson, Optometrist/ Principal Owner, Martin’s Eyecare

  • “Kasia was a saviour for me and my business during a really stressful and challenging time. She helped navigate all the HR complexities and made the whole process much easier for my team and I. I honestly can't thank her enough.”

    Adrian Vecchio, Optometrist and Owner, The Eye Collective

  • “Kasia is the ultimate professional. Caring, understanding, rational, knowledgeable! I wouldn’t entrust my sensitive HR to anyone else."

    Heidi Hunter, Optometrist & Managing Director, Custom Eyewear Newcastle

  • "Optometry NSW/ACT retained the services of KG2 Consulting and Kasia Groves to assist us with the transitioning of staff from one entity to another after an amalgamation. Kasia's expertise, empathy and guidance was invaluable to all the staff as they navigated not only a major change in their work arrangements, but also the huge emotional upheaval that went with it. In the end, the transition went very smoothly and I have no doubt that that was due in no small part to Kasia's support and guidance. My recommendation of Kasia and KG2 Consulting cannot be put highly enough."

    Andrew McKinnon, CEO, Optometry NSW/ACT

  • “I worked with Kasia for two years while she was HR Business Partner at Menicon, and I came to rely on her judgement more than I expected. Kasia handled HR matters with real energy, professionalism and rigour. When something was sensitive or complicated, she took the time to understand it properly, was clear about the options, and followed through. I leaned on Kasia in every situation I needed her expertise in, including the easy ones. What I valued most was that she was on my side. But also gave straight advice when I needed to hear it, and she backed me when it counted. I’m grateful for her support during my tenure, and I'd recommend her to anyone who wants an HR partner they can trust.”

    Angelo Doumbos, Former MD, Menicon Australia

  • “Kasia at KG2 Consulting recently helped me update my resume and I was very pleased with the whole process and outcome. Kasia took the time to find out in detail about my career history and asked all the right questions to work out my strengths in a really easy relaxed conversation. She was able to remind me of my unique strengths in past roles to encourage me to apply for jobs that I did not think my resume would attract interest. I was pleasantly surprised that my applications received almost instant recognition in some cases, which lead to interviews. It did not take long to be offered the job I wanted. I put that down to Kasia producing for me a superb, updated resume, tailoring it to the roles I wanted to apply for and highlighting my skill set. All whilst giving me encouragement pre-interviews, including top tips and reminders that 'I have got this'. Altogether, working with Kasia was a valuable experience which got me a new job, a number of interview requests and gave me the confidence to apply for a job that I would not have done so with my old resume. I would highly recommend using Kasia for any HR requirements you might have.”
