About Us

The reason for the existence of Distil is simple — to facilitate organisational success and sustainability.

We help you achieve that through our work in Change Management, Strategic Planning, Team Building and Marketing.

We provide a broad range of product and services to suit different organisations with different needs and different budgets.

Our philosophy is also simple. We research and uncover the best of the best and then bring it to you.

Change Management, Strategic Planning and Team Building

The best that we have found so far in Change Management, Strategic Planning and Team Building is the Future Search approach and principles.

Distil is the founder of the Australian Future Search Network, which is an affiliate of the US based international Future Search Network. Both exist to bring the Future Search approach and principles to organisations and communities.

The Future Search approach is also aligned with other large group positive focused approaches such as Appreciative Inquiry, Open Space Technology and Whole Scale Change.

Our programs are based on these principles and approaches but tailored to suit the needs of your organisation.

Marketing

The best that we have found in the field of Marketing is Duct Tape Marketing.

Distil is the Australian/NZ Regional Manager for Duct Tape Marketing, an approach which has received rave reviews from Harvard Business Review, Forbes Magazine, Entrepreneur Magazine, Dell, HP and Microsoft. It has been described as the ‘World’s Most Practical Marketing Approach’.
