Established by Heather Yelland in 2008, The Elevation Company helps business owners, entrepreneurs, and leaders design their own version of success, based on our valued-focused framework. Central to The Elevation Company’s philosophy is guiding the discovery of truth and meaning to build a life you love.

The Elevation Company team shares Heather’s respect for the importance of a structured approach to business consultancy and executive coaching while leaning into the personal and professional growth experience of each client — it’s not about getting on the ‘same page’ but understanding your ‘unique page’ in the story.

The Elevation Company works with high-profile clients in Australia and around the world, including Mars, Nestlé, Goodman-Fielder, National Foods and Barnardo’s. Beyond change management, beyond workplace relations, beyond team building, beyond productivity — we’re best-known for our values-based leadership approach, which brings together achievement and fulfillment.

The Elevation Company’s offers services for business owners, entrepreneurs, senior and emerging executive leaders, and anyone in a corporate or management role who wants to love and be loved, feel heard, and ‘got’ for who you truly are.

Together, we’ll map your current strengths, capacities and abilities to identify ‘elevation’ opportunities and possibilities in your business and life — be it strategy, leadership, organisational design, change architecture, or culture building.

The Elevation Company works with businesses of varying sizes, across many sectors, helping them achieve transformational results in leadership, values, culture, strategy, and engagement. Our approach is not just about delivering education—it’s about guiding businesses through a journey of learning, implementation, and sustained growth to ensure real, lasting impact.

Executive Strategy – We’ve guided leadership teams in setting clear strategic direction, improving decision-making, and increasing profitability. Businesses have seen measurable growth by aligning their goals with market opportunities and internal capabilities.

Change Architecture – We have helped organisations navigate change, turning resistance into engagement. By structuring change processes effectively, businesses have improved adaptability and communication, increased efficiencies, and achieved success with minimal disruption.

Coaching & Mentoring – Through personalised coaching, we empower leaders and teams to overcome challenges, build confidence, and reach their full potential. Participants have stepped into higher leadership roles, improved team dynamics, and strengthened their personal effectiveness and leadership brand.

Leadership Development – We have assisted businesses in cultivating strong, trusted, accountable, and visionary leaders. This has resulted in improved decision-making, greater accountability, capacity to “manage up”, stronger team cohesion, and an increase in employee retention, engagement and satisfaction.

Building Engagement – By establishing clearly defined values, then braiding individual and company values, we support teams in becoming more accountable, motivated, and productive. This has led to stronger workplace culture, higher employee satisfaction, and tangible increases in performance and revenue.

Communication Effectiveness – We work with individuals and teams to develop stronger communication skills, leading to better collaboration, reduced conflict, and more effective leadership. Companies have reported improved workplace relationships and a more cohesive working environment, which ultimately leads to increased innovation.

At The Elevation Company, we use a comprehensive measurement matrix, so you know the impact created. We don’t just provide insights—we walk alongside businesses as they implement changes, ensuring that education turns into implementation, action and results. Ultimately, the greatest outcome we help businesses achieve is sustainable growth through empowered leadership, engaged teams, and a strong, values-driven culture.
