Turning Complexity into Practical Business Success

Christine Abela is a leading expert in logic, business systems, and structured problem-solving. With a sharp ability to cut through complexity, Christine designs solutions that are clever, revolutionary, and-above all-practical.

With 30+ years of experience supporting hundreds of small business owners in both New Zealand and Australia, Christine brings clarity, creativity, and confidence to her work in business consulting and systems transformation.

“I help business owners see what’s possible-then build the systems to make it happen.”

From Programming to Practical Business Strategy

Christine’s career began as a Senior Analyst Programmer for multinational companies, where she developed a deep understanding of data, processes, and automation. She later applied these skills to support small and micro-businesses, helping them implement marketing strategies and systems that actually work.

She has a unique ability to bridge technical thinking with business realities-an essential skill for owners struggling to scale without chaos.

Passion for Process, Systems, and Possibility

A true morning person, Christine thrives on structure and progress. She loves digging into business systems, solving inefficiencies, and building smart automations that save time and reduce error. Her love of mathematics and accounting allows her to spot problems others miss-and solve them before they grow.

She’s also a natural business developer, helping owners discover opportunities they hadn’t previously considered. Her creative thinking leads to new pathways for growth, often with tools that were already within reach.

“I often see the silver lining-then help my clients build on it.”

Inspiring Others Through Communication

In addition to consulting, Christine has worked as a motivational speaker and voiceover artist, helping clients share their messages with audiences around the world. Her background in communication helps her connect with business owners at any stage, reigniting passion and helping them fall in love with their business again.

Life Outside of Work

Christine lives in Timaru with her partner. In her spare time, she enjoys the peaceful pursuits of handcrafts, gardening, and fishing-activities that give her the space to reflect, think creatively, and stay grounded.
