Who we are

Path is a design-led strategic consultancy.

We help you play the long game for transformative change in business, social and natural ecosystems.

We're fueled by craft, deep thinking and creativity. We work in frameworks. We practice less haste, more speed. We know you need to be ready for change.

We work collaboratively with our clients and trusted partners to bring diversity and expertise to our work.

We're based in Sydney and work remotely and in person. We're experimenting with a four day work week.
