CASE STUDY
University Navigates Complex Investigation with Confidence
The Challenge:
A major Australian university faced a multi-party complaint involving discrimination, management conflict, and reputational risk. Legal and HR needed an external investigator who could manage the complexity with neutrality and rigour.
The Solution:
A-HA designed and delivered a full-scale investigation process: stakeholder engagement, interview schedules across three campuses, and final reporting to legal, executive, and board stakeholders. We also supported post-investigation planning and re-integration.
The Results:
Investigation completed within 5 weeks. Findings and recommendations were accepted without challenge. Executive feedback praised A-HA’s professionalism and clarity.
“A-HA struck the perfect balance between sensitivity and structure. They handled the complexity with grace—and gave us exactly what we needed to move forward.”
