We bring psychology, behavioural science, and practical change expertise to complex organisational challenges.
Carousel Consulting is a Queensland-based organisational psychology and change consultancy.
We work at the intersection of psychology, behaviour, leadership, and organisational systems - partnering with leaders and teams to create environments where people can work well together, adapt effectively, and deliver meaningful outcomes.
Understanding those connections is where lasting change begins.
Leadership, culture, communication, systems, team dynamics, and behaviour all shape one another. When organisations try to improve performance without understanding those connections, the result is often short-term fixes that don't last.
That's why our work focuses not only on outcomes, but on the conditions that make those outcomes possible.
How we work matters as much as what we deliver.
We start by understanding context
Every organisation is different. Before recommending anything, we take time to understand the environment, pressures, relationships, and experiences shaping performance.
We work alongside people, not around them
Change is more effective when people are involved in shaping it. Our approach is collaborative and grounded in the realities of day-to-day work.
We focus on what works in practice
Good ideas only matter if they hold up in real organisational environments. We help translate insight into practical actions people can realistically apply and sustain.
We're honest and low-ego
We value straight conversations, shared problem-solving, and genuine partnership over consultancy theatre.
Dr Meg Hooper
Meg is the Founder and Director of Carousel Consulting. A psychologist with a PhD in Organisational Psychology, Meg has more than 20 years’ experience supporting organisations with culture, leadership, team effectiveness, and organisational change.
Meg helps leaders make sense of complex people and performance challenges, particularly when the issues are sensitive, systemic, or difficult to name. Her work brings together organisational psychology, behavioural science, systems thinking, and practical change expertise to help organisations understand what is really shaping behaviour.
She is known for creating safe, constructive spaces for honest conversations and helping leaders move from insight to practical action. At the heart of Meg’s work is a simple belief: people genuinely want to do good work, and organisations perform better when they create the conditions that make that possible.
When she’s not at work, Meg runs a circus school, juggles life with two teenage daughters, loves to whip up her favourite Ottolenghi recipes, and dotes on Scout, her anxious Groodle and our unofficial furry co-worker.
Sarah Kim
Sarah is a Consulting Psychologist with a Masters in Organisational Psychology. She brings a thoughtful, evidence-informed approach to culture, team dynamics, psychosocial risk, leadership, and organisational change.
Sarah helps organisations understand the human factors shaping performance and translate insight into practical recommendations and tools. She is skilled in interviews, workshops, surveys, diagnostics, and stakeholder engagement, and brings a calm, considered presence to complex environments.
Her work is grounded in organisational psychology and shaped by a genuine curiosity about people, behaviour, and systems. She brings both rigour and warmth to her work, helping clients move from insight to action in a way that feels grounded, collaborative, and useful.
Outside of work, Sarah dotes on her cat, Aegi (who remains stubbornly unimpressed) and, despite her Korean heritage, maintains an unwavering devotion to Aussie meat pies.
Jacqui Keller
As our Chief Operations Officer, Jacqui keeps everything running behind the scenes so that our consulting team can focus on delivering exceptional results for our clients.
Her passion for business strategy, project management, streamlining processes, and handling finances not only ensures the smooth day-to-day functioning of Carousel Consulting but actively drives our growth, efficiency, and adaptability.
When not orchestrating business operations, she's juggling life with two school-aged kids, twirling at tap and theatre jazz classes, and skilfully delegating kitchen duties whenever possible- proof that knowing when to outsource is a true operational talent.
Scout
As our dedicated furry co-worker, Scout brings unmatched enthusiasm to office life while serving as Meg's loyal executive assistant.
Her core responsibilities include rigorous security protocols (barking at suspicious passers-by), environmental restructuring (strategic shredding of coffee cup holders), and ensuring team morale through mandatory petting sessions. While occasionally anxious about her demanding role, she tackles each workday with boundless energy and dedication.
When not performing her office duties, Scout can be found monitoring her family’s whereabouts with impressive GPS-like precision and practising advanced techniques in the art of canine persuasion.
(and the dog-that-thinks-she's-a-person)
We are psychologists, facilitators, change practitioners, and trusted advisors who care deeply about helping organisations create healthier, more effective ways of working.
Our team brings together expertise in organisational psychology, behavioural science, leadership, culture, collaboration, and change implementation. We combine this with practical organisational experience to help leaders and teams navigate complexity with clarity and confidence.
And Scout, our furry co-worker, is usually somewhere nearby, too.
Helping complex organisations understand and shift the human factors shaping performance, culture, leadership, collaboration, and change.
Carousel Consulting proudly operates on the traditional Country of the Jagera, Yuggera, and Ugarapul peoples. We respectfully pay our respects to Elders past and present, and recognise the continuing connection of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples to Country, culture, and community. We are grateful for the enduring wisdom, care, and connection that continue to shape these lands.
