Our peopleMargie Hartley
Before beginning her coaching and facilitation career Margie worked in the creative arts. As the Director and General Manager of the Melbourne International Comedy Festival in the early-90's Margie was given the task of resurrecting the ailing Festival which had lost government and corporate support. By creating a new business plan and uniting the many diverse stakeholders of the Festival, Margie was able to steer them forward to a common success. It is now one of the world's top three comedy festivals. Margie has also worked in television as an executive producer, specialising in comedy, and in live entertainment as the national advertising and publicity manager for Michael Edgley International where she managed a ten million dollar advertising budget. Margie began her career in Book Publishing. Success in a variety of fields has come with Margie's uncanny ability to transfer her natural and developed skill base. She relishes challenges and problem solving but most of all gains enormous satisfaction and enjoyment from interacting and learning with people. One of her most challenging jobs ever was as a European Tour guide leading groups of 50 people throughout Europe over 40 days! Margie is able to fulfil one of her key values through a strong voluntary commitment to her local community. Margie is a creative thinker and is uniquely good at teaching others through experiences. She believes that because success has different meanings for different people that the key to personal success is in understanding yourself.
