What clients say
“Impressive problem solving skills”
“UQ 180 Degrees Consulting has completed three projects for UQ Health Care. Each of these health related projects were quite complex, requiring a fairly rapid comprehension of the issues and task at hand, and engagement with a range of stakeholders. The 180DC teams demonstrated impressive problem solving skills in analysing the compiled information and distilling their findings into conclusions and recommendations. Their reports were concise and well written, providing an excellent platform from which to take these projects onto future stages. 180DC were a delight to work with. I highly recommend their services.”
