Let’s connect

Who we are. Our purpose. What we do.

PeopleHQ uses powerful people insights to empower self-directed leaders to tackle complex people challenges and drive human performance to achieve meaningful and impactful change.

We operate across leadership, governance, strategy implementation, human resources, learning and development and communication. 

We specialise in behavioural strategy and the human dimension of change management, combining applied psychology, social cognitive neuroscience, behavioural economics and human-centred design. 

We use evidence-based systems and models in partnership with a team of psychologists, psychiatrists, neuroscientists, behavioural economists, human resource professionals, and educators who integrate more than a dozen fields of study and over 50 different frameworks that simplify the complexity of human behaviour.

Headquartered in Cairns, Far North Queensland, with offices in Brisbane, Launceston, and Perth, our work has spanned all states of Australia nationally and internationally—the UAE, New Zealand, Italy, Ireland, England, Indonesia, USA (Texas), Netherlands and Singapore.

We work across a broad range of industries and sectors and are the Trusted Advisor to Deputy Director Generals, Executive Directors, Directors, Boards, Mayors, CEOs and Managing Directors.
