BEHAVIOURAL
PROFILING
LEAD Profiling Solutions
Our LEADProfiling Solutions for individuals, teams family businesses, managers and leaders is a powerful tool designed to elevate both personal and professional development. Unlike standard personality assessments, EDISC provides two distinct profiles—one reflecting your natural behavioural tendencies, and the other showing how you adapt in your work environment. This insight is vital for understanding the impact of behavioural shifts on communication, decision-making, and overall performance.
Through LEADProfiling, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of how your behavioural patterns influence your experiences, including stress management, relationship dynamics, and leadership style. You’ll also uncover what's holding you back and learn how to adapt to thrive in any situation.
Whether you're leading yourself or others, LEADProfiling provides the roadmap to growth. Unlock your full potential, enhance your communication and interpersonal skills, and create lasting impact in both life and work.
WOMEN LEADERS &
BUSINESS OWNERS
SheLEADS
Jess’s signature SheLEADS workshop equips and empowers women leaders and aspiring leaders to cultivate conscious leadership, emotional fitness, intuition, intention, and clarity.
This two-day immersive experience offers a hands-on, transformational journey, exploring the power of self-identity, honing essential interpersonal skills (including how horses intuitively sense human emotions), and enhancing behavioural awareness to elevate emotional intelligence and promote lasting behavioural change.
The program builds and integrates emotional and leadership skills through real-world practice, where genuine transformation takes place.
Through partnerships with horses and learning authentic leadership principles inspired by horse herd dynamics, this experience will redefine how you lead—starting from within.
Practical support for the people side of work.
Every workplace is different — the people, the pressure points, the history, and the way work actually gets done.
We don't start with a pre-packaged answer. We start by understanding what is happening in your workplace, then help you decide what needs attention, what is working well, and where action will make the greatest difference.
Our work sits at the intersection of workplace culture, psychosocial risk and leadership — designed specifically for regional and rural workplaces.
Regional Culture Index (RCI) Diagnostic
See what's happening beneath the surface.
Most businesses are good at managing what they can see — output, rosters, incidents, machinery, systems and safety.
The Regional Culture Index (RCI) helps make the less visible parts of work easier to see.
It is an anonymised worker consultation and workplace diagnostic designed to help businesses identify psychosocial hazards and understand how work is actually being experienced by their people. Worker surveys are recognised by SafeWork SA as one way businesses can consult workers and identify psychosocial hazards under the current risk-management process.
The RCI looks beneath the surface at areas such as workload and pressure, leadership, role clarity, support, communication, fairness, recognition, workplace relationships and behaviour.
You receive a clear picture of what is working well, where pressure may be building, and what needs attention first — followed by a leadership debrief to make sense of the findings.
Available in three regional workplace versions: Primary Production & Pastoral, Workplace Teams and Hospitality.
Who this is for: Business owners and leaders who want to understand their workplace more clearly, meet their worker consultation and psychosocial responsibilities, retain good people, and identify issues before they become bigger and more costly.
The Attuned Workplace Progam
Go beyond identification. Take action, meet your psychosocial responsibilities, and measure what changes.
Identifying psychosocial hazards is only the beginning.
The Attuned Workplace Program gives businesses a practical pathway for deciding what to do next — turning RCI findings into targeted action, then measuring whether that action is actually making a difference.
The program is aligned with SafeWork SA’s psychosocial risk-management process of identifying hazards, assessing risk, implementing controls and reviewing whether those controls are effective.
But the opportunity is bigger than meeting a requirement.
Using Attuned Co.’s GRO methodology:
Gather → Recalibrate → Optimise
we combine worker consultation, workplace data and practical development to help businesses understand what is happening, address what matters most, and track change over time.
Gather establishes the baseline through the RCI, captures anonymous worker voice and identifies patterns, pressure points and priority areas. Where needed, further consultation helps us explore the context behind the findings before deciding what action is appropriate.
Recalibrate turns those findings into practical action. Depending on what is uncovered, this may include leadership development, behavioural profiling, coaching, team facilitation, communication and role clarity, Emotional Culture Deck facilitation, or changes to workplace systems and culture.
Optimise brings the data back in. The RCI is repeated at meaningful intervals so the business can see what has improved, where pressure remains, whether new issues are emerging and what needs attention next.
The data determines the development.
There is no generic workshop package and no training, for training’s sake.
The Attuned Workplace Program is designed to move a business from:
Identify → Understand → Act → Measure → Improve
It supports businesses to meet their psychosocial responsibilities while also building the things that matter beyond compliance — more attuned leadership, healthier workplace culture, better retention and a workplace that good people want to stay in.
Who this is for: Businesses and organisations that have identified psychosocial risks or cultural pressure points, are navigating growth or change, or want a structured, measurable approach to strengthening their leadership and team culture, while progressing their psychosocial responsibilities.
Safe Ground Toolkit
Practical confidence in psychosocial compliance.
For businesses wanting a clearer, more practical way to manage psychosocial safety, the Safe Ground Toolkit helps make the process easier to structure, document and maintain.
It provides practical tools and records to support worker consultation, hazard identification, actions, training and ongoing review — helping businesses keep a clear record of what they have identified and what they are doing about it.
Safe Ground can sit alongside the RCI or provide a practical next step for businesses choosing to manage their own response after receiving their results.
Who this is for: Business owners and managers who want more structure around their psychosocial safety processes without committing to the full Attuned Workplace Program.
Behavioural Leadership Coaching
Understand what drives how you lead.
This is not surface-level coaching or a series of accountability check-ins.
Inner Leader Coaching goes beneath the behaviour to understand the patterns influencing how you think, respond, communicate and lead — particularly when pressure is high.
Drawing on behavioural profiling, neurotransformational coaching and emotional fitness tools, we explore the beliefs, habits, pressure responses and blind spots operating underneath your leadership.
You will build greater awareness of your own behavioural style and impact, understand what can trigger reactive patterns, and develop the flexibility to respond more intentionally to different people and situations.
The work is practical and deeply personal — connecting what is happening inside the leader with what others experience on the outside.
The aim is not to create a polished version of you.
It is to develop a leader who is more self-aware, steady, adaptable and intentional in how they show up.
Best for: Emerging and established leaders, middle managers and professionals who want to better understand themselves, strengthen their people leadership and develop greater confidence, communication and composure under pressure.
Leadership and Team Development — With HORSES
Professional development — beyond the boardroom
Our horse-led experiences create a different kind of learning environment — one where leadership, communication, blindspots, gaps, and patterns in individuals and team dynamics become visible in real time.
There is no riding involved, and no horse experience is required.
Horses respond to what is happening in the moment — clarity, pressure, cohesion, confidence, inconsistency, connection, intention and behaviour. That makes them powerful partners in helping people notice patterns that can be difficult to see in a meeting room.
For leaders, the work can reveal blind spots around presence, communication, pressure responses, over-control, clarity and how they influence others.
For teams, it can highlight how people communicate, who steps forward or hangs back, where trust is strong or shaky, how the group responds under pressure, and what happens when there is no obvious path forward.
The value is not in “doing activities with horses”. It is in what those experiences make visible — and the facilitated conversations that connect those insights back to the workplace.
Sessions are practical, objective-led and tailored to the needs of the group.
Who this is for: Leadership teams, emerging and senior leaders, established teams, and organisations wanting a meaningful professional development experience that strengthens self-awareness, communication, trust and how people work together.
Industry Talks and Keynote
Decoding the people side of workplace safety.
Leaders are now expected to manage a part of workplace risk many were never trained to recognise.
Jess delivers practical, engaging talks that strip away the compliance language and make psychosocial safety easier to understand — helping business owners, leaders and managers recognise where psychosocial risk shows up in everyday work, what early warning signs to look for, and why workplace culture matters to retention, performance and safety.
Topics can be tailored for agribusiness, regional organisations, industry groups and leadership forums.
Best for: Industry boards, producer groups, regional business networks, conferences, employer groups and organisations wanting to start the psychosocial conversation in a practical, relatable way.
"Thanks for facilitating a really interesting, thought-provoking session for our team. Lots of takeaways to improve the way we do business, the way we work together as a team, and the way we conduct ourselves as individuals — in the clinic and away from it. Highly recommend."
— Good Country Physiotherapy, Bordertown, Naracoorte, Keith, Kingston
The best first step is always a conversation.
Let's talk about what's happening in your business or your team.
Hi, I'm Jess. I work on the human side of your business.
I work on the human side of business and WHS — the communication breakdowns, culture challenges, leadership gaps, and invisible pressures that do not always show up on a checklist, but show up everywhere else. In sick days. In resignations. In tension that nobody talks about — but everybody feels.
After years working across the rural sector in mining, agronomy, fencing contracting, beef properties, and sales, one thing became clear to me: the quality of our experience at work is deeply shaped by the health of the relationships around us. By how leadership shows up. By whether people feel heard, valued, supported, and emotionally safe enough to be human at work.
When I stepped into business ownership myself, I saw it from the other side too. The more grounded, clear, and emotionally steady I felt within myself, the better I led — and the better I felt in life. That insight sits at the heart of everything I do.
Today, I help leaders, teams, and workplaces in regional Australia make the invisible visible — the patterns, pressures, emotional undercurrents, and workplace dynamics shaping how people behave, communicate, and work together. I work well alongside leaders and, where relevant, HR, to support the people side of leadership, culture, and development in a practical, grounded way.
