Who we are

Our team of organisational psychologists have over 80 years of collective experience in this profession. Because we share what we've learnt about what works and what doesn't, our solutions are efficient and work in the real world, saving time and money.

This is important for us, because as an employee-owned company, we're each personally invested in helping our clients succeed.

Our experience

Established in 2000, we've seen it all. Human nature is stable, regardless of country or industry. Management trends come and go, but good science and fundamental principles are timeless.

We've been in business for over 20 years because our approach works in the real world.

Our values

It's not just who we are, but how we work. At Kaya, we are connected to each other and our clients through our shared values.

Faithful

We're in it for the long haul, on your team, all the way.

Patient

This is your journey – we are simply your guests and guides, and we understand how long profound transformation takes.

Knowledgeable

We know our stuff and we'll share as much (or as little) wisdom as you need.

Serious

About everything we do for you (but we don't take ourselves too seriously).

Honest

Who you see is who you get, and if we can't help you, we'll tell you (but only once we've explored what you truly need).
