Jennifer Hamilton

Associate Partner

Jennifer is an executive adviser specialising in organisational transformation, leadership and capability. Working with CEOs, executive teams and organisations facing significant transformation, growth or complexity, Jennifer applied her knowledge of Organisational Development to identify what needs to shift and helping to make that shift happen. She believes that organisations rarely struggle because they lack a strategy. The harder challenge is creating the leadership, culture and organisational capability required to turn strategy into sustained performance.​

With more than 25 years’ experience in senior Organisational Development leadership, including EnergyAustralia, Commonwealth Bank, AMP, Ernst & Young and Qantas, Jennifer brings the perspective of someone who has lived organisational transformation from inside the business.​

Jennifer is passionate about helping leaders see what their organisation needs to become and building the leadership, culture and capability to make it happen. ​

Jennifer draws on her skills and experience to see the whole system, connecting strategy, culture, leadership, talent, capability, performance and organisational systems to understand what is really driving results. In tandem, she supports leaders in defining the shifts required to deliver strategy and embedding them through leadership, systems and everyday practice, as well as using her experience in Talent and Capability to help clients identifying, assessing and accelerating the people critical to the organisation’s future.​

As an Executive coach, Jennifer challenges as well as supports. She builds trusted relationships while bringing the insight and courage to challenge assumptions and surface difficult issues. She enjoys supporting senior leaders through transition, complexity and strategic challenge to expand their capacity and create enterprise-wide impact.​

Her impact includes establishing a 24 person enterprise OD function at AMP through the AMP and AXA integration, leading a systemic culture and leadership strategy at Energy Australia that lifted engagement from 42 percent to 78 percent and developing Commonwealth Bank’s high potential strategy with the executive team, CEO and Board, securing full Board endorsement.​

Jennifer is certified in a wide range of psychometric, culture and leadership assessment and development tools.​
