Troy Cardoso-Vigors

As a leadership coach and organisational development specialist, I provide a strategic partner for leaders who are striving to be better and achieve more, for themselves, their teams and their organisation.

My coaching expertise helps individuals to build their self-awareness, clarity and confidence as they put into practice new perspectives and ways of working. 

Known for my pursuit of excellence and impact, I focus on strategic levers and adapt proven approaches to the context and goals of each organisation I work with. My ability to lead enterprise-level change, develop talent and facilitate culture change has been demonstrated over 30 years of experience and is grounded in contemporary practice.

I have worked with many individual leaders, small businesses and large organisations to achieve transformation and growth at a personal, team and system scale.  Whilst some of the bigger projects have been with names you may recognise - BHP Billiton, Anglicare SA, University of Adelaide, Santos and Accolade Wines - the smaller and less familiar ones were just as significant. 

My diverse experience, curiosity for what makes you and your organisation work and genuine care for people could make me the right partner to help tackle your next challenge or opportunity.

When I’m not working, you may find me on the couch with my husband bingeing on the next great story, indulging in my passion for architecture and interior design or connecting with friends over a great meal (not made by me!). 

If you want to create opportunities for yourself and others to excel and make your organisation or the world a better place, make 2025 your watershed year.  If I can help you to do that, then it would be a privilege.
