ABOUT US

At Kym Viant Consulting, we work to support leaders and organisations through powerful leadership engagement in building a dynamic and sustainable corporate culture.
The landscape of modern organisations has undergone a significant transformation, necessitating a re-evaluation of how organisations manage their most valuable asset – its people. A prominent shift lies in employees' increasing desire for autonomy and control over their work-life balance, coupled with the expectation that employers recognise and respect their right to disconnect.
Good leadership plays a pivotal role in fostering a supportive and engaging work environment. By demonstrating integrity, empathy, and effective communication, leaders can inspire their teams to reach their full potential and achieve exceptional results. A leader who creates a culture of value, safety, support, and motivation empowers employees to do their best work.
Empowering leaders to develop both personally and professionally is essential for cultivating a healthy team culture and a dynamic workplace. By investing in leadership development, organisations can create a more supportive and engaging environment that attracts and retains top talent, ultimately leading to increased trust, productivity, and overall success.
Our vision is to disrupt traditional leadership approaches that may no longer resonate with today's diverse workforce, particularly as generational differences become more pronounced. We achieve this by understanding the current needs and pain points of leaders and their teams, bringing tangible leadership skills, tools and solutions leaders can apply to create an environment of trust, purpose and engagement.
Our work is conducted across numerous industries, both in the public and private sectors ranging from Emerging Leaders to Senior Executives.
Meet Kym
I build fearless and empathetic leaders, shifting mindsets for growth and advocating kind assertiveness that creates meaningful change.
After 25 years in the Royal Australian Navy, leading in high-pressure environments and guiding teams through challenge, uncertainty, and change, I learned a truth that still shapes my work: to lead others well, you must understand the whole person — beneath performance, beyond the title.
Through Kym Viant Consulting, I work with leaders and organisations ready to create cultures where both strength and humanity can coexist. My approach — Kind Assertiveness — blends compassion and courage. It’s not about being soft. It’s not about being forceful. It’s about speaking truth with care, making decisions with integrity, and fostering trust that fuels performance.
I help leaders and organisations to:
-
Build courage, empathy, and personal accountability into their leadership culture
-
Strengthen trust, connection, and collaboration across teams and functions
-
Translate leadership intent into meaningful, measurable outcomes
What I value:
-
Kindness — empathy, compassion, and respect as everyday leadership tools

Let’s explore how we can strengthen your leadership culture and elevate your team’s impact.
