Get to Know Us
Azolla is an unassuming aquatic plant that changed the world. It created the environment for other organisms to grow and reach their potential.
This is the Azolla Effect.
It is an analogy for what we do as a consultancy.
​
We firstly understand the needs of our clients. Then using a sub-contractor model, we match the capabilities needed to deliver results.
​
It allows us to:
-
provide unique propositions to our clients
-
work on win/win projects
-
be limitless by leveraging capabilities
-
provide truly integrated services across organisational teams and project life
-
focus on our client's needs rather than building pipleline
Our executive
A well-regarded strategy, policy, innovation and all-round different thinker. She honed her skillset and expertise in senior roles in the public and private sectors. She is a trusted advisor to CEOs and senior executives, providing practical and pragmatic solutions to the challenges they face.
Marion’s focus on evidence-based strategy and advice is a reflection of her multi-disciplinary training, translating to clear decisions that will have traction with customers. It also has to be practical and pragmatic – translating to results.
​
She is able to quickly diagnose the bottleneck through a couple of conversations and identify the issue to get things back on track.
Marion has always led and managed teams, and therefore has an inherent understanding of how to unlock the latent potential within people and organisations to achieve high performance.
She actively invests in her knowledge to ensure clients benefit from contemporary thinking and methodologies.
Marion has an expansive network that has been curated over the last 20 years, spanning the world, enabling her to leverage those international capabilities to deliver bespoke products and services to people and businesses.
Oden
No stranger to overcoming the challenges of life, Oden was a rescue dog before taking his position as Office Dog at Azolla. He is well-known for his warm welcome to clients, and is always present to create a more informal environment for ideas to flow and inspiration to strike. Oden also provides our clients comfort during coaching sessions.
Our Business Development
We believe the magic happens at the confluence or mash-up of different things. This is because life does not happen in silos.
​
We therefore design bespoke programs for our clients to solve their problems in an impactful way.
​
The design is anchored in best practice, contemporary frameworks and is layered with our lived experience.
​
It is practical, tangible and actionable. It is academic in action. That is, we go beyond the theoretical as we like to see ideas and people in motion. This is when change happens and outcomes become real.
​
We are here to serve you.
​
For when you need different.

We need to do better for our customers. The solutions and ideas that we are getting from this program are so valuable. I see that these will lead to huge benefits and time savings for us all.

What we have been doing is really eye-opening and this was unexpected. This program showed me just how inefficient our processes are. I see so many opportunities to improve.
