A uniquely tailored approach to personal and organisational transformation — aligning people, purpose, and leadership to drive real impact and lasting change.

Working with Anthony

  • "I approached Anthony for executive coaching as I went through a massive career transition and life shift (becoming a parent). Ant's guidance in navigating my complex scenarios came with kindness, empathy, and clarity based on his experience leading people globally over many years, which I found invaluable. I tend to run at 100 miles an hour, and with Ant's expertise and encouragement, I managed to slow down to find focus, lean on my strengths, and appreciate my achievements, whilst setting up my own consulting business. I highly recommend Ant as a human-centered, transformational executive coach."

    - Marc Bennie, Atlantic Fellow

  • "I highly recommend Anthony as a trusted CMO advisor. His ability to navigate complexity, provide practical solutions, and his excellent listening skills, high emotional intelligence, and inclusive approach make him a reliable advisor and leader. Anthony played a crucial role in establishing the central marketing and digital experience function at UNSW, offering expert advice in organizational design tailored to UNSW's needs. As a warm and engaging workshop facilitator, he helped stakeholders build relationships and define a holistic content strategy framework. Anthony also oversaw high-profile marketing programs, including an international academic profile campaign and the development of marketing collateral for UNSW’s 10-year strategy launch. His strategic understanding, attention to detail, and expert stakeholder management ensured exceptional delivery under time pressure. I recommend Anthony for any CMO advisory role without hesitation."

    - Sofia Lloyd-Jones, Executive Director, Marketing & Digital Experience, UNSW

  • "Anthony was a valuable partner in supporting the development of OMA’s communications strategy. His ability to quickly absorb and distil complex information into a clear and usable format made a significant impact. He approached the project with efficiency, flexibility, and a keen willingness to collaborate, ensuring that our needs were met with thoughtful and practical solutions. His strategic insight and problem-solving mindset were truly appreciated, and we highly recommend his expertise."

    - Kylie Green, General Manager, OMA & MOVE

  • "Anthony has made an extraordinary contribution to ACON’s Pride in Diversity as a valued advisor. His guidance in reviewing our brand strategy, broader communications, and positioning has been instrumental in breakthrough strategic insights. Bringing his extensive expertise as a CMO, where he supported inclusion programs, Anthony quickly understood the strategic and creative challenges we faced. His ability to positively collaborate with a range of stakeholders and advisory groups has been remarkable. Anthony's insights and collaborative spirit have significantly enhanced our efforts, and we are grateful for his contributions."

    - Chris Keely, Deputy Director, ACON Pride Inclusion Programs

  • "Anthony is a fantastic and wise weapon to have working with you, full of chutzpah and no bs, yes, but also a lovely bloke too who cares about the work and about you, equally. He’s able to see where problems and politics might obfuscate an opportunity, and able to counsel and navigate through or around. His work ethic is exceptional, his compassion also; when I worked over a period of about a year with Anthony, he only ever bought the best out in me, the best out in the creative work we were tasked with delivering and the best out in the client, perhaps most significant of all. His cogency, his presentation flair, his command of the brief, are golden. I hope to work with Anthony a lot more, into the future, not least for his sense of humour which somehow seems to get mine."

    - Carl Ratcliff, Founder, This is The Day

  • “We worked with Anthony during a period of transition and through our strategic planning process which required expert CMO advisory support, with a key focus on our marketing, brand and strategic direction. Anthony’s expertise was invaluable in guiding us through this transformation period.”

    - Peter Colosimo, Chief Operating Officer, NOVA Entertainment
