Carousel Consulting began in 2004 as a provider of consulting services that drew on organisational psychology principles to help a diverse range of clients navigate their people challenges. Over time, we developed deep expertise in the human dimensions of change, recognising a crucial insight: while technical solutions receive significant attention and investment, it's the human elements that often determine whether transformation succeeds or falters.
As our journey continued, we found ourselves increasingly drawn to the unique challenges faced by asset-intensive organisations. We discovered our greatest impact came from helping these complex environments bridge the gap between technical excellence and human experience. We saw firsthand how aligning diverse workforces - from engineers and operators to field teams and executives - around shared goals and ways of working unlocked extraordinary potential.
Today, we partner with leading asset-intensive organisations across industries to design, implement, and embed transformational change that creates lasting positive impact.
WHAT'S IN A NAME?
Our name "Carousel Consulting" reflects our flexible approach to supporting clients wherever they are on their change journey.
Like the classic carousel ride, we can hop on and hop off at different stages, providing expertise precisely when and where it's needed while remaining a committed partner throughout the entire transformation experience.
Our mission
Our mission is to humanise transformation in asset-intensive organisations by:
We believe that when organisations address the interconnected pillars of workplace culture, workplace relationships, and ways of working, they create sustainable foundations for operational excellence and innovation.
Our approach combines deep expertise in organisational psychology and behavioural science with practical experience in asset-intensive environments. This unique blend allows us to develop solutions that are both scientifically sound and operationally viable.
Our approach is:
HUMAN-CENTRED
We design every intervention with the people who will experience the change at the forefront, aiming to develop solutions that enhance rather than disrupt the human experience of work.
EMPATHY-LED
By taking time to understand the diverse perspectives, concerns, and aspirations across your organisation, we create inclusive change processes that are designed to foster belonging and commitment.
DATA-DRIVEN
Our recommendations are grounded in rigorous analysis of qualitative and quantitative data, supporting objectivity and evidence-based decision making.
PSYCHOLOGY-BASED
Drawing on established principles of organisational psychology and behavioural science, we implement proven approaches that align with how people naturally think, feel, and behave during periods of change.
Compared to many general management consultancies, we focus on the human dimensions of change in asset-intensive organisations, bringing deep understanding of your unique context and challenges.
Our methods are grounded in organisational psychology and behavioural science, ensuring evidence-based solutions rather than management fads or untested assumptions.
We combine theoretical expertise with practical experience, creating solutions that work in the real world of complex operations and diverse workforces.
Our focus on building internal capability aims to embed positive changes into your organisation's DNA, supporting continued adoption and improvement long after our engagement ends.
We've successfully guided numerous asset-intensive organisations through transformational change, as demonstrated in our case studies and project outcomes.
Our multidisciplinary team brings together expertise in organisational psychology, behavioural science, change management, and leadership development, with specific experience in asset-intensive environments.
This diverse background enables us to understand the complex interplay between people, technology, and operational requirements in your unique change environment.
Whether you're facing cultural challenges, implementing new technologies, or adapting to industry changes, our team has the expertise to guide your transformation journey with evidence-informed approaches and human understanding.
Carousel Consulting proudly operates on the traditional country of the Jagera, Yuggera, and Ugarapul people and we respectfully pay our respects to Elders past, present, and emerging. Their enduring culture, which has adapted to significant change over thousands of years, inspires us to place the human experience of change at the core of everything we do.
