Virtual consulting lifeline set to help struggling South Pacific tourism operators

Solomon Islands dive tourism entrepreneur Belinda Botha has launched COVID-19 Human Capital Virtual Consulting  to help struggling South Pacific tourism operators with virtual business coaching advice.

Georgia-based Botha has been approved to offer the services as part of a new programme instigated by Business Link Pacific (BLP), an Auckland-based private sector development programme committed to supporting Pacific-based businesses and funded by the New Zealand Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade (MFAT).

Botha?s aim is to provide virtual consulting service coaching to employers, entrepreneurs and employees across the South Pacific tourism and SCUBA dive sectors with a strong focus on providing customised advice.

The wide range of professional services COVID-19 Human Capital Virtual Consulting provides ranges from business and career guidance, coaching, counselling and mentoring for companies and individuals. It can  provide direction with recruitment, HR and outplacement, strategic and business planning and organisational management.

Botha said: ?While COVID-19 Human Capital Virtual Consulting?s initial focus is on helping local (Solomon Islands) businesses, we are also ready to help other SMEs in those countries where BLP is already active."

This includes Australia, Cook Islands, Fiji, French Polynesia, Marshall Islands, Micronesia, New Caledonia, New Zealand, Niue, Palau, Papua New Guinea, Samoa, Tonga, and Vanuatu.
