Evolution Partners

Evolution Partners is an Australian executive coaching firm, based in Perth, dedicated to empowering leadership teams in mid-market companies across Australia and New Zealand. The firm specialises in helping businesses to build and scale through a proven, structured strategic planning process. Their comprehensive approach encompasses leadership team coaching, strategic planning workshops, and bespoke CEO coaching, aiming to foster clarity in strategy, effective execution, and improved cash flow. Ultimately, Evolution Partners strives to create greater freedom for business leaders by instilling discipline and providing a clear direction for growth.

Founded by Brad Giles, Evolution Partners leverages his extensive experience and deep immersion in global business best practices since the 1990s. Giles, an accomplished author, has spent over a decade as a leadership team coach, driven by a desire to build enduringly great businesses rather than merely profitable ones. The firm focuses exclusively on mid-market leadership teams, serving companies with annual revenues typically ranging from $1 million to $200 million. This singular focus allows for the development and application of tailored tools and methodologies designed specifically for the unique challenges and opportunities faced by businesses in this growth phase.

What sets Evolution Partners apart is their integrated approach, which embeds key tools and systems directly within their client's operations. These include proprietary frameworks such as Profit Per X, systems for Disciplined, Effective Meetings, the acclaimed Topgrading hiring system, and the Onboarded onboarding system. They are also the official representatives for Gazelles International and Verne Harnish in Western Australia, providing certified workshops and content aligned with international best practices. The firm's commitment extends beyond immediate financial gains, aiming to cultivate motivated, productive teams, generate organic revenue growth, ensure consistent execution, and optimise cash generation for long-term success.

Under the leadership of Founder and Managing Director Brad Giles, the team also includes experienced leadership coaches like Andres Zylberberg and Richard Peake. Evolution Partners is recognised for its thought leadership, regularly sharing insights through its two weekly podcasts, "The Evolution Partners" and "The Growth Whisperers", and a robust blog, covering topics critical to business growth and leadership. They have authored several influential books, including "Made to Thrive", "Onboarded", and "Bigger isn't Better, Better is Better", which serve as foundational guides for their coaching philosophy.
