Welcome to
Agitate Consulting
Coaching leaders
and developing businesses
At Agitate Consulting, our goal is to achieve a high level of satisfaction with the advice we provide, every time.
We're called "Agitate" because we want you to know from the outset what we do and how we approach business development and personal growth. This simple "agitating" approach and our unique way of engaging the right talent to address your specific needs has effectively fuelled our growth since we opened our doors in 2014.
I personally am thrilled you’ve decided to visit us. Please feel free to take a closer look to discover what sets Agitate Consulting apart from other consulting companies, and I look forward to speaking with you should you feel we might be a fit for you.

HOW WE GOT HERE
The Journey to Agitate Consulting
Agitate's Founder, Phil Baldock, enjoyed a successful 30 year corporate career with time at Coca-Cola Amatil and culminating at Jim Beam-Suntory where he had the privilege to lead a $1.5b business spanning across 50 countries and influencing 60% of the world's drinking population. During his time in corporate he built upon and reinforced his philosophy of "being brave, reinvent and make a difference".
Phil realised early in his career that there are very few bad businesses, just bad leaders and destructive cultures. It was this understanding that helped him transform many business organisations throughout his corporate career.
At Agitate Consulting, it's no different.
We believe the performance of a business or an individual can be transformed by connecting with and working alongside great people who are capable of dreaming big, know how to persuade others and who aren't afraid to embrace their fears or take a risk.
Phil started Agitate Consulting because he understands how powerful a high performance culture can be for a business and for its staff, and he enjoys bringing like-minded people together to influence the behaviour of others in a positive and rewarding way.
WHAT WE SET OUT TO ACHIEVE
Our priority is to understand you and your business
Despite our name, the Agitate Consulting experience that our clients and business partners have reported is unique; Phil and his colleagues appreciate the importance of personally taking the time to truly understand you, the business's leaders and the people alongside them, as well as your organisation's culture.
At Agitate, we believe it's essential to reflect on what's unique about you and your organisation and how it is performing before recommending any changes in strategy or behaviour, and we dig deep with an informal, hands-on approach.
Agitate Consulting's ultimate goal is to accelerate performance but in a
non intrusive, stress-free way.
Agitate and seek out the weak points
that are restricting your growth
Once Agitate has a better understanding of you or your business, we go to work seeking out weak points and inconsistencies in critical areas, such as:
Vision and strategy
Industry or category data collection
Go-to-market strategy and capabilities
Reporting and frequency
Quality of people and structure
Personal development
This collaborative review process will determine what needs to change and what's working well.
That said, people are at the heart of everything we do at Agitate Consulting, so it's not just about re-evaluating the key strategic areas of your business, it's also about improving you and your staff's capabilities and how they interact and execute that strategy.
Design and optimise your personal goals
or company strategy
Agitate Consulting works closely with "Thought Leaders", both outside and across your business.
This is the Design Phase where our goal is to establish a strategic vision, along with an effective go-to-market strategy and review process capable of turbo-charging your business. During this phase, Agitate's mantra of “be brave, reinvent and make a difference” really comes to the fore.
Agitate works with you to enhance the capabilities of your Leadership Team so they are better able to lead the organisation through the necessary changes to realise the new vision.
We can also take individuals through this process with one-on-one coaching designed to identify their own personal brand, their set of behaviours and goals to accelerate their performance.
Agitate's one-on-one personalised coaching is invaluable to enhance your performance, or help prepare you for your next job, a promotion or a new business venture.
Drive execution and know how your business is performing
Agitate likes to ensure that everything worth measuring to drive your performance change is being measured.
By now, you and your Team will understand what needs to be done and what is required to achieve a high performing business, or to be a high performing individual.
Agitate works alongside you and your Team to develop an Accountability and Reporting Matrix; this personalised Matrix holds the business and their people accountable to their goals and tasks.
Agitate Consulting believes that reporting should not just be for reporting's sake. We believe fact based, easy to understand, measurable and timely reporting is paramount to enhancing an individual's accountability and self-esteem in order to accelerate performance and achieve the company's - as well as your own - business goals and objectives.
An accountability and reporting process is very powerful for people as it allows them to be recognised and rewarded for their efforts. Furthermore, this process helps to identify where some individuals or areas of execution are failing or need further refinement and help.
The accountability and reporting process is easily adapted to suit individuals to help focus and enhance their own personal development.
