OngoingTheoryThe future of business performance is alignment.
A modern business consultancy
Ongoing Theory exists to help build better leaders and better businesses. We partner with individuals and organisations who are ready to do things differently - to expand the idea of success, to trade constant hustle for alignment.
Alignment is when your mind is clear, your body is energised, and your emotions don’t hijack you. It’s when you’re fully present, not scattered across a dozen distractions. Work stops draining you and starts feeling meaningful again. Sounds nice doesn’t it.
At Ongoing Theory, we help leaders, teams, and organisations shift into this state. Not with a one-size-fits-all approach, but through evolving practices we call ongoing theories. We meet you where you are, uncover what’s blocking your energy, and guide you back to centre, so you can lead, create, and grow with clarity and purpose. Glorious.
What we do
Coaching & Consulting
+ Coaching - When you need a guide to help you return to centre, find balance, increase performance and help design a life you truly enjoy.
+ Consulting - When your team or organisation needs help at the strategic level. Reaching alignment with your business goals in ways that balance harmony and performance.
Workshops & Retreats
+ Workshops & Offsites - When your team needs a jolt. Not more meetings or strategy decks but fresh energy, honest breakthroughs, and the kind of creative alignment that moves people forward, together.
+ Retreats - When it’s time to stop ignoring the signs. Step back, slow down, and create space for deep transformation - the kind that leads to meaningful, lasting change, not just a weekend reset.
Our flagship offerings
Return to Centre
A three-month programme to refine how you lead - mentally, physically, and energetically. Designed for leaders who are feeling stuck, tired or burnt out and have a desire for change, but don’t know where to begin.
The Alignment Offsite
A one-day, high-impact experience designed to bring your team back into sync - intellectually, culturally, and operationally. It blends clear-headed strategy with embodied experiences in a beautiful location that gets people out of their day-to-day fog and into real, meaningful momentum.
Work isn’t working.
Most professionals are stuck in reactive mode - rushing, disconnected, misaligned. Leaders are carrying more, while creativity and clarity get squeezed out. It’s not fun for anyone.
At Ongoing Theory, we help you shift from pressure to presence. Not by slowing down, but by reconnecting with how you lead, make decisions, and show up. It’s not just about fixing your situation, it’s about fixing how you show up.

OUR CLIENTS COME FROM
The Alignment Theory
We’re at the cutting edge of ancient wisdom.
What the heck does that mean? While the challenges leaders face today may look modern, the underlying causes of stress, burnout, and disconnection are timeless. We are holistic beings who require continual tuning and alignment to thrive. It’s actually rather simple, yet we have forgotten.
That’s why we created The Alignment Theory - our model for leading in this modern world. We approach your life through a holistic lens, looking first at the flow of energy in your life, then at how you align body, spirit and mind and ultimately, how that alignment shapes both your being and your doing.
Because when you’re in tune, everything moves with greater clarity, purpose, and ease. And that’s real nice.
