The world is changing. People development hasn't moved fast enough.
We're fixing that.
Dear Thrive gives organisations access to advisory skills on demand, from subject matter experts, AI coaching, and leadership diagnostics, accessible when the business, team or individual needs arise. Expert advisory and coaching support for managers and leaders at the speed of modern business.
Lets take a real use case...
Meet Sarah
Head of Marketing for a Tech Logistics Company
Promoted to lead a team, needs to upskill and drive short-term growth. Overwhelmed and not meeting expectations.
How does Sarah get support now?
Practically
☑️ Desk research eg. Google, GenAI, podcasts, videos
☑️ E-learning, events, leadership programs
☑️ Professional services engagement
☑️ Outreach on LinkedIn (little response)
Emotionally
☑️ Speak to existing mentor network
☑️ Speak to colleagues or HR
☑️ Access EAP
☑️ Speak to GP / psychologist
This is resource-intensive, costly, slow and falling on Sarah alone.
Instead, Dear Thrive gives your employees individual choice and control with the guardrails and reporting your organisation needs.

Sarah, Global Markets Manager @ Tourism Australia
Working with Dear Thrive to support our mid-level leaders has had a significant impact. Supporting our people at this stage of their career wasn't something I had been actively prioritising and Dear Thrive really stepped into that gap.

What do Organisations typically ask before joining?
The Leadership Capability & Future Workforce Barometer™ measures capability across eight dimensions, including AI velocity, human edge, leadership confidence, and transferability. Organisations run the assessment across their leadership cohort to establish a diagnostic baseline, identify the highest-priority development gaps, and track progress over time. It gives HR and L&D leaders data-backed insight when presenting development strategy to the business, rather than relying on anecdote or assumption.
Dear Thrive typically partner with Australian based organisations or teams. We work with HR and L&D leaders and C-suite executives and their teams across government, tourism, technology, media and professional services. Our current partners include Tourism Australia, Braze, Expedia Group, Audience360, and Flexischools.
AI readiness called AI Velocity in the Leadership Capability & Future Workforce Barometer™ is a scored dimension in every organisational assessment. Our Advisor roster includes specialists in AI for leadership, data and AI strategy, and future workforce design. Development programs can be specifically structured to close AI literacy gaps, helping leaders model AI-augmented work for their teams rather than leaving people to navigate it without direction.
The best starting point is a conversation with the Dear Thrive team. Tell us your team's core challenges and we'll respond shortly. We typically start with a scoping conversation to understand your organisation's context and team requirements. A great starting point is completing the Leadership Capability & Future Workforce Barometer™ for the team.
Access to the Advisory and Coach network is purchased in a credit bundle depending on team needs and seniority AU$599 and $999 per person are common package bundles and individuals can book 30 - 60 minute advisory sessions, get access to our AI Coach and leadership capability diagnostic. Personalised onboarding, benchmarking and reporting are incremental and based on business requirements.
Dear Thrive is Australian owned and founded and combines real human practitioners with leadership experience combined with AI-powered coaching and the Leadership Capability & Future Workforce Barometer™, a proprietary diagnostic tool. Unlike generic L&D programs, Dear Thrive is built for the specific pressures of modern leadership: AI readiness, leadership transitions, and the gap between individual performance and team capability. We serve mid-career managers through to senior leaders across organisational cohorts.
