Your Local Advisor
Meet Thomas
Thomas is a business leader with experience in the banking & professional services industries. His background is in business development, program management and coaching/consulting across a rich variety of business cultures ranging from Europe, ASEAN to Australia; and org. structures including multi-nationals, small business and start-ups.
Throughout his career his core strength has been in delivering results – be it cost savings as a result of a more streamlined organisation or revenue impact by driving higher value activities. His expertise lies in process & people. From a process perspective, he is unafraid of challenging the status quo and is able to drive systemic change through root cause based problem solving. From a people perspective, Thomas is able to connect with business leaders & their teams to implement a vision-to-results strategy.
This expertise gained coupled with the belief that any business can be improved formed the key motivation to start his own coaching/consulting business in 2013.
Thomas’ experience is broad and includes:
• End-to-end business planning – strategy to implementation
• Staffing & teaming
• Program & change management
• Process streamlining
• Data Security & Compliance
• Pricing & negotiation
Developing long term partnerships with business owners underpinned by a return on investment model means Thomas can focus on what’s most important to the owner – be it more time with family a stronger business or helping to realise a personal vision.
Being strongly focused on day-to-day operations many owners can benefit from views & experiences of an impartial outsider to bring new perspectives & provide the necessary advise to facilitate change.
As your local business advisor I have two separate but connected roles:
One is to connect with the local business community with workshops and educational material, the other working with our clients.
Business Advisor
Working with clients on a Return-On-Investment (ROI) basis.
This means the income made by clients as a result of working with us must be at least a 5 times ROI. We believe fee structures should be transparent and accountable. For this reason we have proprietary software to ensure both client and advisor have an ROI “fit” before starting a program.
The objective of a client partnership is to meet agreed performance standards to:
Maximise client income…
Rationalise client effort…
Optimise client scale…
Promoting Locals
Every one of our consultants lives in a local community and drives past hundreds of businesses every day.

Since TAN was established in 2014 we have met, promoted and helped thousands of local businesses with this program. Help has taken many forms from Free PR where businesses are promoted on our social media platforms through to assessing businesses for profit potential. Often business owners will simply want a few pointers from an outside perspective.
All our consultants do this on a voluntary basis as their contribution to building business success.
Planning Sessions
Quarterly Planning
- Every business owner needs to step away from the day-to-day running of their business to think about longer-term issues and opportunities.
- Often the best environment for this is with other business owners who are faced with the same challenge of balancing their operational role with their longer-term role of leading and managing their business towards its goals.
- Quarterly Planning Sessions make this easy where business owners are provided with a structured format to build their plan.
- All planning sessions feature our signature 1-Page Plan that lists out 3 core projects for the upcoming quarter and a scoreboard for monitoring results over the period being planned for.
- Business Owners are provided with a workbook and planning guide to ensure they walk out clear, focused and ready to achieve the projects they have set.

Trusted Advisor Network
Thomas is part of a dedicated team across Australia & New Zealand.
Our past 18 years in the advisory space has been the catalyst for developing our break-through approach.
Our programs are only offered to clients on an ROI basis after businesses have been analysed to determine the upside available to the business owner. Businesses must demonstrate a 500% ROI to be eligible for a program. This approach has been developed after years of in-field experience of being consultants, coaches, trainers and presenters.
Most importantly, over the last 12 years TAN has developed a deep understanding of working with business owners from every industry imaginable.
It has allowed us to continually develop leading methodologies, systems and intellectual property that makes up our program material. The synergy of working in partnership with our team along with such diverse clients has given us a collaborative culture that has become the most valuable part of the way we operate as a network.
