About us

Who we are and what we do

Who we are

Thrive Executive was launched in 2017 with the focus of enabling individuals and businesses to transform through humanistic leadership and purpose-led action. With a focus on vision, strategy and people we help businesses realise their potential and that of their people.

Every client engagement is underpinned by the same three objectives – identify clear outcomes, understand what it will take to achieve them, and remain accountable to making them happen.

By bringing together research around business management, mindset and behaviour change we seek to support leaders to inspire meaningful change.

Where and how we work

With our main office situated in Wollongong, NSW we have worked with clients across Australia. Using a combination of in-person and remote engagement we are able to deliver executive coaching and change programmes wherever you may be situated.

Our Values

We firmly believe that values act as our compass in the world. If individuals and organisations make decisions in line with their core values then the opportunity for success, but also genuine satisfaction, is greatly enhanced. That is why we come back to our values in everything we do.

Relationships

Strong, reciprocal relationships underpin all our engagements.

Wellbeing

We believe mental and physical wellbeing is fundamental to success.

Contribution

We continually seek to make a positive difference in the lives of others.

Growth

We have a focus on driving continual learning and personal growth.

Trust

We act with integrity and are authentic in absolutely everything that we do.

The
THRIVE
Philosophy

We hear the word “thrive” a lot but to us it is more than a buzzword.

Here it stands for six core elements of personal satisfaction and success – time, headspace, relationships, identity, vision and engagement.

This recognition that no one thing is responsible for our success and wellbeing underpins all the work we do with clients.

We love our clients

At Thrive our clients are our partners, and we are proud to collaborate with incredible companies.

Why work with us?

At Thrive Executive we recognise that transformation requires focused action, and that this is dependent on the right mindset and behaviours. If there isn’t a commitment to work from the point of outcomes to accountability then any success will be by luck rather than design. We partner with clients on the basis that there is a shared commitment to achieve lasting, people centred, results.

What our
clients have
to say.

Jodi was instrumental in helping us understand what it took to reconsider the drivers and values that guided our alignment and priorities. Jodi has been absolutely outstanding at connecting our CIO and leadership team to an action plan that provides structure, discipline and invites our employees to take ownership of the way they help shape our future state operating model.

Jodi is an outstanding leadership coach, delivering a very personable and independent perspective to her customers. Throughout my time with Jodi, her focus is always on the person in front her, allowing her to provide honest and constructive feedback. Not only does she deliver amazing insights from a professional standpoint, her personal resilience sets an amazing role model for many leaders.

Jodi has been an exceptional leadership coach and mentor to some of our most senior Business Units Managers across NSW. Jodi's ability to develop tailor-made programmes that recognise and capture the capabilities of the individual has greatly improved our strategic alignment across the region. This approach has helped to break down communication barriers and mindsets that would have in the past discouraged openness and trust.

Jodi is a force! She's provided great coaching and insights to our leaders at Peoplecare. Her commitment to achieving through people is inspiring. I recommend Jodi to any organisation that wants to empower their people to unleash their inner-remarkableness!!

Jodi is amazing and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for greater alignment and improved performance within their teams. Her approach has made a huge difference to everyone in our team and has given me greater insight into how individuals in my team are operating. We are definitely working with greater purpose and direction as a team, thanks to Jodi’s work.

Jodi is a fantastic facilitator and team builder. She melds her deep industry foundation, expert training, and broad facilitation experience to produce a highly effective, and laser-focused program for your team. Quite apart from her professionalism, she's genuinely kind and goes to the end of the earth to help. I couldn't think of anyone I would recommend more highly.
