Strategies
All our work is strategic.
This is where it all started for us. In addition to the strategic work associated with all our complex projects, we facilitate and develop organisation, team and function strategies. This includes culture and people strategies, change and m&a integration strategies, and marketing strategies.
Clients include large and small businesses, and prestigious public sector entities.
“I have worked with Siebert for some time now and will readily attest to his thoughtfulness, laser like insight, total commitment to the success of his clients and to his leadership skills. I have watched him use his skills to navigate very difficult and complex situations and problems with respect and authenticity. Siebert is engaging with a wonderful sense of humour that makes working with him a delight. His diligence and leadership adds huge value to any project making it stronger and better suited to its purpose.”
Frances Cawthra Chief Executive Officer - Cenitex
Learning
We support high-performing and motivated leaders to scale new heights, round-out leadership skills, and develop fresh approaches to complex problems. We also support emerging leaders to meet the challenges of leadership. We design, develop and deliver comprehensive leadership programs, or contribute to co-design and specialised modules.
We design, develop and deliver bespoke capability training in skills areas including communication, collaboration, productivity, planning, cyber safety, negotiation skills, interest-based bargaining and more.
Our learning services include coaching, in-person and virtual facilitation. We also develop sophisticated, interesting and engaging E-learning modules, incorporating video, animation and interactive scenarios.
“It was incredibly valuable to work with Siebert and the team, whose expertise in executive training and individual coaching has been nothing short of transformative for our senior leadership team. Over the course of a carefully curated learning retreat, our leaders were equipped with invaluable insights, strategies, and personalised mentoring that has significantly enhanced their abilities to navigate complex commercial challenges and to lead with clarity and confidence.
They brought a wealth of knowledge and tailored their approach to suit our team’s specific needs, fostering an environment that encouraged growth and skills development. The impact of their guidance has been clearly evident, reflected in the overall cohesiveness and effectiveness of our leadership team.”
John Langford AEG Europe
Complex communication
We make the complex, compelling.
We craft cut-through communication of complex ideas, from product offerings and advanced marketing communications, to playbooks and thought leadership. Delivery options include digital, print and video.
We produce highly effective video content using scripted text, interview content and animation for optimal clarity and effectiveness. Our work is always founded on sound behaviour science and learning theory.
Built on our extensive practitioner and advisory experience in change leadership, we also develop communication strategies and delivery to secure buy-in and follow-through of change programs.
“I thank you sincerely for your leadership and support over the course of the year. We have gone from basically a theoretical idea (from our brainstorming session) to having onboarded our first government and critical infrastructure partners this week onto a real platform with a proper data model, governance, a forward works plan and most importantly – trust and goodwill from our partners. We could not have done this without you – you and the team have allowed us to professionalise our service offerings, engender confidence and allowed us to sell a vision... Our ... animated videos, info sheets [and] catalogue ... clearly resonate with our stakeholders and partners, and is a testament to the professionalism, expertise and creativity of your team.”
Sean Choi Australian Cyber Security Centre
Team development
Sometimes, teams are challenged by conflict, legacy issues, rapid change or systemic problems. We have the experience, mediation skills, conflict resolution skills and credibility to help teams heal, recover and transform into high performance.
Over decades of actual leadership experience, and deep study of team dynamics and how effective teams work, we have developed incredible processes for transforming groups of people into highly effective teams.
We conduct post-census analysis, diagnostic assessments and team health audits, and help to design turn-around strategies. We even conduct extensive interventions with troubled or dysfunctional groups.
We help to design optimal structures and processes. We also support good teams to become great teams.
“As usual you gave a sterling performance and demonstrated so much of what all of us can aspire to in terms of professionalism, commitment and passion. I think it’s great for our guys to spend time with you for these reasons.”
Bill Cordingley Senior Executive Rabobank
“The journey that we have taken with you is, and will always be, part of our history and dare I say it, our DNA.”
Founding Partner – Law Firm
“There were moments yesterday that were exciting and, I hope, epoch changing. The expert way that you steered the day was just excellent. Real momentum achieved.”
Government client
Marketing
Having owned and managed a distinguished, full-service creative agency for a decade, our marketing credentials are well established.
We focus on marketing strategies, frameworks and communications, integrating design and visual media to achieve spectacular results. We work closely with marketing departments and in-house specialists to grow capability.
“From the moment we met the team … we were inspired by their friendly, helpful and collaborative approach to our campaign brief. … The strength of the copywriting was exceptional and a deciding factor in our decision making to proceed with this campaign. Working with the team was really easy with lots of open communication. Like a swarm of bees, the team took on the project with expert precision. From thorough campaign proposals and step-by-step timing schedules to colourful casting wardrobes and unique sound design, everything was considered and thought of leading up to shoot day. Come shoot day, there were no surprises and we were able to capture all of the content (stills and video) we needed to produce our wonderful-ly TVC.
Brand Manager, Food brand
“From the very beginning, they took the time to listen and understand our company’s needs and goals. They were always friendly, approachable and available to answer any questions and address any concerns we had. Their dedication and commitment to our project was evident throughout the entire process, and we couldn’t be happier with the end result.”
Project Manager, Construction Firm
Video
We produce compelling video – from documentaries to corporate and explainer videos.
We own top-grade video equipment for studio and location shoots. We also have highly sophisticated animation capability, and audio equipment for studio-grade voice-over and sound production.
Not everyone has a high-end budget, so our options include simple animation and participant-voiced video, in addition to our full-scale professional productions.
What a wonderful experience we had… [You] put together an absolutely amazing video for us and patiently listened to all our special requests, and advised us on things to do. We couldn’t be happier with the outcome. We give you five stars — you guys rock! Thanks a million.
Corporate client
“I am consistently impressed by your work and your ability to translate our requirements into resources that meet the diverse needs of our users, employing timeless, inclusive and visually engaging design… We look forward to sharing these with the community.”
General Manager of a Government Commission
Evaluation
We conduct gateway and progress reviews to ensure strategy implementation remains on track, or inform strategic adjustments.
We evaluate communication, learning programs and learning systems, support L&D teams, and help project leaders, trainers and facilitators to achieve remarkable results.
“Firstly, I wanted to thank you for the exceptional work you have delivered documenting our Reinvention journey. Everything you have done – from interviewing our current (and many former) senior leaders, the extensive desk based research, and the construction of a compelling and educational treatment from our ATO reinvention journey, was delivered with the utmost professionalism. I know I speak on behalf of both the Commissioner and myself when I say we are very thankful.
The Reinvention case study treatment has remarkable insights, both for senior leaders in any field, and of course for large government departments like ourselves. There are interesting lessons, real practical examples and concrete case studies that people will be able to learn from, and, throughout, a compelling style and narrative that I know you uniquely have brought to the project.
I would add that during your time working with us we received excellent feedback from the many staff members you interviewed as part of your research.”
Jacqui Curtis Chief Operating Officer Australian Taxation Office | Now Australian Public Service Commissioner
Facilitation
Conference facilitation: We conduct well-prepared, energising sessions and programs that match the audience and bring out their best. We can also help plan and design impactful agendas and experiences.
Team building and team retreats: We combine our extensive experience with teams, great behaviour-science based exercises, and no-cringe activities to shape team experiences that build unity, collaboration and performance. Every experience is unique and tailored to meet exact needs.
Planning days: We craft days that are balanced, productive and motivational, ensuring quality inputs for informed decision-making and plans that will actually be implemented.
“I just wanted to send you a note of thanks following the workshop last week… For an industry that almost prides itself on over complicating things … it was very clear that you had done your research. Feedback from the session was unanimously positive. Whether that be from the “Doubting Thomas’s”, those who enjoyed the opportunity to step back from their day to day, or those that were always going to love it, everyone came out interested, excited and looking forward to the next steps… We have an engaged Team now in this process, so thank you.”
Matt Bacon CEO – Pacific Howden Insurance
“Hi Siebert. I can’t thank you enough for the work you facilitated yesterday. The dinner was abuzz. The team was so in need of change and they are very excited. They loved your content and approach and it was the subject of lots of conversation over dinner.”
Corporate client
Speaking engagements
We deliver inspirational, meaningful and entertaining talks at conferences, team days and leadership retreats.
“Siebert is a highly engaging speaker. By using his personal experience from having worked in several countries around the world, he was able to captivate our audience in way that made them question their own approaches and identifying personal areas for improvement. He is motivational, but at the same time grounded. He balances strategy on one hand with down to earth execution on the other. His talk balanced strategy implementation with everyday actions, giving his audience a great framework to effectively reaching the goals we strive towards as an organization.”
