We build the human and leadership capability needed to create people and planet positive work.
Artificial intelligence, climate transition, rising living costs, psychosocial risk, and social instability are reshaping the way work is designed, governed, and experienced. What once felt like the occasional disruption has now become the everyday condition of modern work.
Work is changing faster than most workers and organisations are prepared for.
For workers, this is resulting in stress, burnout, fatigue, and the feeling of constantly needing to adapt. For organisations, it is placing pressure on safety, rehabilitation, and leadership systems that were not designed for this level of complexity.
The relationship between work and health is changing - and Kinwork is here to build the coaching capability required for healthier, more sustainable work.
Work doesn’t change itself. People do - when they have the capability to work and lead differently.
Poorly managed change however can become a psychosocial risk.
That’s why healthier work requires more than just good intentions - it requires clarity, capability and care.
We embed the skillset of coaching where change is actually happening.
We work at the intersection of occupational health, work sustainability, leadership coaching and adaptation, to help people and organisations build the capability they need to work and lead in a healthy, more sustainable way.
Through evidence-based coaching and coach education, we support the human skills required for healthier work in a changing world.
Our work includes:
climate and trauma aware workplace coaching
leadership capability for transition and complexity
psychosocial health and systems informed practice
occupational heath coach education and certification
A letter from our founder
I started Kinwork after working with some of Australia’s largest organisations to redesign their systems of work, and support injured and ill workers recover safely and sustainably.
What stayed with me is that most employers care about their people - and many care about their impact on the world around them.
But the challenge I saw again, and again was one of translation: how do we turn care into better conversations, safer systems, healthier leadership, and work that people can actually sustain.
Kinwork was created to address this challenge.
Coaching challenges us all to think differently. Specifically, occupational health coaching bridges the gap between our desire to work better - and actually working better collectively in practice. In a world rapidly being reshaped by AI, climate change, psychosocial risk, and social disruption, that capability has never been more important.

Grounded in evidence. Aligned with global best practice.
Kinwork’s approach is informed by internationally recognised standards and evidence, including occupational health guidance from the WHO and ILO, climate science from the IPCC, coaching principles aligned with ICF standards, and regenerative economic frameworks such as B Corp, Doughnut Economics, and the Wellbeing Economy Alliance. As a social enterprise, we translate this global best practice into practical human capability - supporting organisations to move beyond compliance toward healthier, more resilient systems of work.
