We help leaders and organisations do the deep work that leads to real, lasting change.

Our work isn’t about quick fixes or templated solutions. It’s about helping people build the kind of self-awareness, relationships and cultures that actually shift outcomes.

We’re coaches, facilitators and thinking partners. But more than that, we’re in it with our clients, in their corner, when it’s complex, uncertain, or when the path forward isn’t obvious. We help leaders navigate ambiguity, lead culture shifts, and align who they are with how they lead.

We work with executives, emerging leaders, boards and teams to unlock performance by getting underneath the surface, and confronting what’s really getting in the way of the future they want to create.

How We Help

  • Organisational Discovery

    Using human-centred design, we discover first and solve second to confront what’s really getting in the way, then co-design and deliver interventions that address fundamental gaps in organisational performance and strategy execution.

  • Performance Execution

    We work inside your real-world priorities and performance gaps, to intervene on predictable performance, and shift mindsets and culture in ways that stick.

  • Human Development

    Traditional training focuses on skills that often fade, because it doesn't address the source of our actions: our identity. We focus on identity transformation. Through tailored development programmes, we leave people with capabilities that will last them a lifetime

  • Individual Coaching

    Organisations don’t transform - people do. We work with executives, senior and emerging leaders - the people at the centre of change, to help them confront the patterns that are not serving them and unlock new possibilities for themselves and their organisations.

  • Strategy Development

    For teams and organisations to go beyond the predictable, they must take a stand for the future they want to create. We work with clients to confront the gap between their predictable future and the future they stand for, by co-designing ‘interventions’ - future-oriented, deliberate shifts made to keep people true to what they stand for.

  • Collaborative Partnerships

    Human beings are at our core. Our client relationships are built on trust and genuine partnership, enabling us to co-create solutions and respond proactively to emerging needs.

  • "Before, our culture was overly protective. We protected our leaders from taking on challenges they felt uncomfortable or professionally unproven... now with the support of In Your Corner, we have layers of management who are saying “challenge us, stretch us, be honest with us, we want to push into problems we don’t currently know how to solve.” To us, that's the leadership fuel for the organisation. We create compelling strategic challenge and we know our people will step into that space, close the strategic gap, and extend themselves doing it"

  • "Three years ago, our organisation quite capably ran operations, but the assumed trajectory was reasonably flat... after working with IYC to reorientate the orientation of our senior teams , we are now targeting $70 million of enterprise value creation a year. Importantly we now hold the belief that is deliverable"

  • “IYC has helped us make a big shift - in the way our leaders now understand the changes they need to make in themselves before expecting others to do so.”
