Building workforces for the future.
Future proofing organisations
Since 2013, Quintessential has been in the business of building resilient organisations and future-proofing workforces to the ever increasing complex and uncertain challenges that we face.
We work with you to upskill and empower your people to become more self-reliant, resilient and autonomous so that your business becomes more sustainable, open to future opportunities and growth, and more cost effective.
Advantages in working with us include:
- Working in partnership so that you retain ownership of the solution
- Transfer of knowledge and skills to ensure continuity of the improvements upon completion
- Separation of the ‘strategic’ and ‘operational’ to help you optimise ‘on-the-business’ whilst working ‘in-the-business’
As a boutique consultancy, we offer:
- Personalised services based on your specific needs
- Bespoke solutions, not generic templates
- Expert consultant with lived experience and working knowledge of the sector
Our approach is based on empowering your people to make better and more informed decisions because knowing HOW to think will empower you far beyond knowing WHAT to think.

The ability to plan for the future is more challenging than ever.
As leaders and decision makers, we are less able to rely on the past for our thinking, as the road ahead is unknown.
This requires us to think differently, to look beyond traditional perspectives, to forge and create new pathways forward.
Patrick and his Quintessential Consulting team leverage their blend of technical knowledge, people and organisational systems, working in strategic capacity to build future workforces and create strategic change, resulting in a modernisation of the Australian Defence Forces.
Patrick and his team are highly experienced, autonomous and independent consultants. We work with a wide range of clients including Defence, Industry, Federal/State & Local Government and Small to Medium Businesses, focusing on their workforce to help them upskill, build capability and become resilient to the challenges of the future.
