With the managed service industry projected to grow exponentially, it’s clear that the market trusts this model. What does this mean for the Australian contact centre market?
From IBIS World’s Contact Center Industry Analysis 2023, the market in Australia is very promising:
“The Call Centre Operation industry has performed moderately well over the past few years. While some client businesses outsourced their marketing, information and customer interaction services to call centres in countries like India and the Philippines, others have brought these call centre services back to Australia because of concerns about language barriers and customer interaction.”
It’s clear that having your call centre solution managed by experts may be the most effective approach
At Forrest Contact, I am responsible for Sales & Partnerships, where I work closely with Enterprise to MME businesses and partners, developing solutions that strengthen their brand, drive awareness and increase sales & profitability.  Collaborating with Operations, Customer Success, and Marketing, I play a crucial role in acquiring new clients and retaining existing ones.
Accomplished sales and customer success leader with over 20 years of experience driving growth in B2B environments.
Expertise in shaping strategy, empowering teams, and delivering growth with record-breaking engagement and retention. 
Excels in all facets of the customer journey, operations, marketing, and sales, leveraging technical skills to develop and roll out Saas platforms to deliver efficiency and productivity gains, increase sales opportunities, and facilitate revenue growth. 
Respected and engaging leader known for building cohesive teams and motivating strong performance through effective coaching and mentoring.
With a history of achieving customer retention, and sales targets, I am renowned for delivering positive results in Business Consultancy for Growth, Compliance, and Sustainability and my career has centred on:
•	Growing business revenue through SaaS platform white labelling.
•	Transformational change to right size Sales and customer success operations
•	Strengthening relationships and driving global expansion via alliances and partnerships.
•	Optimising Customer journey with technology, processes and success management
•	Upskilling sales and customer success teams to optimize conversion and retention.
•	Building trust and enhancing value propositions through social awareness.
•	Offering Business Advisory and Consultancy Services
These strategies are not just what I do; they are what I live and breathe

In today’s global economy, no business thrives in isolation. Strategic alliances and partnerships are essential—not just for growth, but for survival. They unlock access to new markets, accelerate innovation, and enable resource sharing that drives efficiency.

Done right, partnerships build credibility, foster agility, and create ecosystems of mutual value. Whether co-developing solutions, expanding distribution, or navigating compliance across borders, collaboration is the multiplier.

In short: alliances aren’t a tactic. They’re a strategy. I would like to thank some of the partners at Dearin & Associates we have started to travel with
Oliver Jankowsky from Hall & Wilcox, Shazadi Durrani from Department for Business and Trade for UK, Summer Zhou from WPIC Marketing + Technologies and Enterprise Singapore as some of our recent engagements and added to the previous ones i referred to.

A Journey of Growth, Grit, and Global Vision 🌏
I arrived in Sydney with a suitcase full of ambition and the mindset of a Gen X professional — shaped by resilience, adaptability, and a drive to build something meaningful and today is the anniversary day and... believe me it has been a long time already. 

From early days in hospitality to a fast-paced B2B career, I’ve evolved into a trusted partner for businesses seeking growth and impact.
Along the way, I discovered the power of purpose — the “why” that fuels everything I do. Whether crafting a dream, curating an experience, or shaping a lifetime journey, I’ve evolved into a true extension of the businesses I’ve partnered with. My focus has always been on delivering authentic, outcome-driven value with emotional connections— creating meaningful impact through every interaction.

I’m grateful to the many people who’ve supported me along the way. I’ve always believed that while our destination may be written, the path we take is ours to shape — full of twists, lessons, and purpose.

Over the years, I’ve had the joy of co-creating and hosting several podcast and interview series: 

🎙 "B2B Like a Boss" with Jeff Yang — sharing tools and strategies for impactful sales engagement

 🎙 "This Is Their Stories" — spotlighting inspiring leaders and their business journeys

 🎙 "Road to Growth" with Cynthia Dearin GAICD — offering insights for businesses scaling internationally

Worplace solutions webinar such as the right to disconnect with Cowell Clarke 

Each project has been a passion-fueled adventure, and I’ve loved every minute of it.

✨ Now, I’m gearing up for a bold new initiative at Dearin & Associates launching in 2026. Stay tuned — the announcement drops in the new year.

Business Beyond Borders- Dearin & Associates- November 2025

We opened the month with the celebrations of the NSW Export Awards  in Sydney and close with the French Australian Business Excellence Awards in Canberra for Dearin & Associates who received the International Expansion & Creation Award. Bravo!

From Sydney’s market briefing to Indo Pacific 2025, it was an honour to showcase Mississippi’s innovation and my colleagues Nicolas BRIAND and Cynthia Dearin GAICD connected its industry leaders with Australia’s top companies and institutions.  I was invited by Robert Comazzetto and Joe Murphy from Cowell Clarke for the HR Command ANZ  launch party and my colleague Mike Todd took one of our clients down to Melbourne for a tender project and visited our partner Steven Walker from UK Department for Business and Trade.

Another action-packed month as the year draws to a close.

Have a powerful month!

A huge thank you to Secretary of Commerce William Cork , Vickie Watters Martin, MBA, and the Mississippi Development Authority team for their vision and trust, and to our Australian partners: Australian Trade and Investment Commission (Austrade), Investment NSW, the U.S. Commercial Service, and many others for their exceptional support.

How did Cynthia Dearin GAICD feel this morning waking up in Canberra. Still a little stunned? Indeed...

Last night at the French-Australian Excellence Awards, Dearin & Associates received the International Expansion & Value Creation award—an unexpected honour Cynthia shared with Romain Bertin , Director of CYLAD Australia.

She is not French—not even a bit—but she has loved France, the language and culture since she was a child. From lunchtime classes at HIGHFIELDS SCHOOL to French lessons at Abbotsleigh, a year at Rennes II, and a life-changing internship at Australian Trade and Investment Commission (Austrade) in Paris—French has been a thread through her life.

At Dearin & Associates, working with Cynthia and Nicolas BRIAND in Sydney, and Tatiana Miron, in Paris  together with our French and francophone clients and partners, allows us to retain our distinctive French flair.

Cynthia has also very Australian bilingual children who can’t wait to explore France themselves.

It was inspiring to see the strength of the France–Australia connection last night. Thank you François Vantomme and Bernard Le Boursicot for creating these awards, and His Excellency Pierre-Andre Imbert for the warm welcome.

For Zoe McKenzie MP a thank you for your important work supporting the bilateral relationship and congratulations to all the finalists and winners.

Un message de Cynthia Dearin ce matin:
Réveil ce matin à Canberra, encore un peu sonnée.

Hier soir, lors des Prix de l’Excellence Franco-Australienne, j’ai eu l’honneur de recevoir le prix Expansion Internationale & Création de Valeur—un privilège inattendu que j’ai partagé avec Romain Bertin, Directeur de Cylad Australia.

Quand l’annonce a été faite, j’étais sous le choc. Je ne suis pas française, mais j’aime la France, la langue et la culture depuis l’enfance. Des cours de français à Highfields Prep, au lycée, une année à Rennes II et un stage inoubliable chez Austrade à Paris—le français ne m’a jamais quittée.

Grâce à des amis francophones qui ont corrigé mon accent, partagé leurs livres et m’ont accueillie chez eux, j’ai gardé ce lien avec la France, même à distance.

Aujourd’hui chez Dearn & Associates, j’ai la chance de travailler avec Nicolas Briand, Gerald Garcia et Tatiana Miron—et avec des clients francophones, ce qui me ravit.

J’ai aussi deux enfants très australiens et très bilingues, impatients de vivre leur propre aventure en France.

Hier soir, j’ai été touchée par la richesse du lien franco-australien. Merci à François Vantomme et Bernard Le Boursicot pour ces prix, et à Son Excellence Pierre-André Imbert pour son accueil chaleureux.

Zoe McKenzie—ravie d’avoir pu vous retrouver. Merci pour votre travail essentiel au service de la relation bilatérale.

Et bravo à tous les finalistes et lauréats—votre travail est une vraie source d’inspiration.

For a french person this is gratifying to see your boss, Cynthia Dearin GAICD 🇫🇷 be selected as a finalist in the International Expansion & Value Creation category for the 2025 French-Australian Excellence Awards! 

Her connection with France goes back to the very beginning of her international career - she started out in France first at the Université Rennes 2 and then with Australian Trade and Investment Commission (Austrade). It was there that she first discovered her passion for helping businesses succeed across borders. Having lived and worked in France, and as a French speaker with two bi-lingual children, this recognition feels especially meaningful for her.

A big thank you to everyone who has shown their support as she is proud to be part of a program that celebrates individuals and organisations strengthening French-Australian ties and enriching our communities.

The winners will be announced on 25 November at the French Embassy in Canberra - We can’t wait to celebrate alongside other finalists!

🤖 AI is here to stay, but it doesn’t have to replace your people.

Yes, AI will automate certain tasks. But the companies that thrive won’t be the ones that slash the most jobs. They’ll be the ones that blend AI with strong leadership and culture to empower their teams.

I have attended last month an event at the salesforce building on the future of CX and let me tell you everyone was very concerned but in essence us, leaders, we have to integrate AI with our teams and take them on the journey.

Here’s what that looks like in practice:

AI + People = Better Decisions — leaders use AI to crunch data, while teams focus on insight, strategy, and relationships.

AI + People = More Capacity — automation handles repetitive tasks, freeing employees to innovate, sell, and serve customers better.

The real risk isn’t AI itself. It’s leaders who treat AI as a silver bullet and forget about their people. When that happens, adoption stalls, ROI evaporates, and culture suffers.

AI shouldn’t be seen as a competitor. It’s an enabler. And with the right leadership and culture, it can drive growth that’s smarter, faster, and more human.

Scaling internationally without setting up a local entity?

With an Employer of Record (EOR), it’s possible.

Put simply, an EOR lets you hire employees in new markets without setting up a local company. The EOR becomes the legal employer on paper, while you direct the person’s day-to-day work.

Why does this matter for growth-phase companies? Because it helps you:

👉 Test new markets quickly - hire talent in-region without years of legal setup.

👉 Reduce compliance risk - payroll, taxes, and local labour laws are handled for you.

👉 Solve talent headaches - attract, onboard, and retain the right people fast.

For ANZ businesses entering Asia or Europe, EOR can mean the difference between moving fast and seizing opportunities or getting stuck in red tape.

At Dearin & Associates, we recognise that workforce flexibility is a critical enabler for businesses expanding globally. That’s why we’ve embedded this capability into our Integrated Workforce Strategy—empowering companies to scale with confidence across borders.

I work with companies to build EOR partnerships that unlock growth while protecting your culture, compliance, and reputation. Having worked in the industry and supported businesses with workforce strategy, it’s clear that additional support can make a significant difference. For many companies, it’s also a pragmatic financial decision—particularly when operating under restricted or limited headcount budgets.

Curious how EOR could fit your business? DM me or drop a comment below, and let’s talk.

Have you ever stopped to consider the true cost of a failed hire?

Too many companies treat hiring abroad (whether through outsourcing, offshoring, or Employer of Record models) as a quick fix. But rushing without considering cultural fit can be very expensive.

According to recent statistics a failed hire as far as talent acquisition costs and cultural onboarding are high-stakes investments.

The hidden costs are often worse:

📉 Morale drops as good employees pick up the slack

🪫 Teams disengage when misaligned hires clash with company culture

😓 Customers lose trust after poor service or inconsistent delivery

🚒 Leaders spend their energy firefighting instead of driving growth

So, before you rush to outsource or offshore, ask yourself: Are you hiring for cost alone, or also for cultural fit and growth?
