Tuning leadership and culture for clarity, coherence, and impact — across individuals, teams, and systems

Composing coherence through attuned, relational leadership

In a world of constant movement, leadership asks for more than strategy — it calls for presence, perspective, and the capacity to respond from wholeness. Camino supports leaders and teams through intentional evolution — cultivating cultures, visions, and ways of working that are regenerative, resonant, and aligned with what is emerging.

Whether through focused sessions or long-term journeys, our work nurtures not only skill and insight, but the inner coherence, nervous system capacity, and relational intelligence needed to lead in complexity.

Our work spans:

Strategy and vision setting
Organisational culture and operating model design
Conscious leadership and adult development
Relational intelligence, team dynamics, and psychological safety
Systemic, strategic, and service design

Examples of session topics and learning modules include:

Intentional Visioning and Strategy Development
Operating Model Design for Sustainable Wellbeing and Impact
Nervous System Intelligence for Sustainable Leadership
Psychological Safety and the Foundations of Trust
Harmonic Team Dynamics for Collective Action
Authentic and Courageous Conversations
The Art of Feedback and Constructive Critique
Deep Listening as a Leadership Practice
Navigating Complexity with Systems Awareness
Pre-mortems: Designing for Resilience and Learning

CAMINO’S APPROACH

Whole-system learning that moves beyond information into embodied insight

Camino’s approach to leadership and team development is systemic, experiential, and deeply human. We weave systems thinking and human-centred design with developmental psychology, somatic intelligence, and the healing and creative arts to create spaces where insight becomes integration — and evolution becomes embodied.

We begin with three guiding inquiries: What is the context? Where are we now? What is asking to emerge?
From here, we co-design a developmental arc that may include diagnostics, custom or adapted learning modules, coaching, reflective practices, and immersive facilitation.

Our methodology draws on multiple intelligences — cognitive, emotional, relational, somatic, and energetic — cultivating coherence across head, heart, hands, and spirit. The result: leaders and teams who are more attuned, conscious, and capable of stewarding collective coherence in a complex and evolving world.

Why work with Zaana?

Dr Zaana Jaclyn works at the intersection of strategy, human consciousness, and the living systems that shape how we lead, relate, and change. With more than two decades of global experience spanning 22 countries, her work supports people and systems to navigate complexity with greater depth, coherence, and capacity. She brings leaders, teams, and structures into right relationship.

Zaana is known for moving with ease between the boardroom and the altar. Before founding Camino, she was a Junior Partner at McKinsey & Company, leading global work in human-centred strategy and systemic design across the public, social, and health sectors.

Her approach brings commercial rigour alongside an attuned understanding of relational dynamics, cultural patterns, and the subtle cues that shape coherence, culture, and change. She carries a rare sensibility for what is alive and what is ready to move, in human systems and in nature.

Her work integrates adult development, somatic and embodied practice, and the dynamics of culture and collective systems. She creates rigorous, reflective spaces where growth requires courage as much as practice. She has designed an award winning leadership development academy, coached senior teams through major transformation, and supported hundreds of leaders toward greater presence, integrity, and aliveness.

Zaana holds a PhD in Human Centred Design and qualifications in coaching, adult development, and somatic practice. She serves as an External Advisor to McKinsey & Company, a Board Director with Suncare Community Services, and a Lecturer in Leadership at RMIT. Recent clients include the University of Queensland, Rio Tinto, Funlab and Xero.

WHAT MY CLIENTS SAY

Funlab undertook a huge project with Zaana to unveil true insights of our guest experience across our key entertainment brands Strike, Holey Moley and Archie Brothers Cirque Electriq. Zaana is one of the greats. Her capacity to understand business complexities, coordinate across functions and implement our huge guest experience project with guaranteed outcomes is a super skill. Our team loved working with her in a number of collaborative workshops across a number of our functions. Her ability to connect at different levels within the business showed her adaptable talent but more importantly her emotional intelligence to gain best results.
Blaise Witnish (Chief Growth Officer) FunLab
My visioning work with Zaana was enlightening, deep and clarifying - which is a testament to Zaana's gift for coaching, stewarding and sharing wisdoms grounded in Zaana's unique life experiences. It clarified a holistic vision for the life I want to manifest, but also more importantly reminded me of who I want to embody as I continue on this journey.
Anne (Strategic Designer) Australian Government
I received a Human Design session from Zaana in early 2024. During the session, Zaana used visuals, easy to digest information and her beautiful supportive holding style to help me see my gifts, and strategies to embrace all of the parts of myself. I learnt so much in my session, and found it practical, grounded and enlightening. Thank you so much Zaana!
Rhiannon Sims (Founder) Akashic Sister
I’ve worked with Zaana both as a personal coach and within an organisation leading project delivery. What stands out in both cases is her sharp insight into what needs to be done and how to do it effectively. Her quiet style cuts through the noise to help people get to heart of the issue and move to designing outcomes. She is a delight to work with and has shown me how to refine my thinking toward the outcomes I need.
Stephanie White (Founder and Director) Yellow Donkey Growth Consulting
I worked with Zaana in a leadership workshop and after liking her approach I decided to engage her as a personal coach. Zaana is an exceptional listener with a calming nature, holistic perspective and an understanding of fierce corporate culture. Working with Zaana has helped me to assess both my work and life with a greater perspective. She is a great outside voice for anyone trying to look inside.
Patrick (Account Director) Retail Company
Zaana is brilliant. She has vast experience and deep knowledge, a passionate and open-hearted approach to coaching, an ability to bridge multiple knowledge domains and synthesise them with nuance and relevance to bring them to your unique life context and she has a genuine commitment to your development and growth. Zaana melds her own personal development journey, spiritual shamanic practice, energetic healing modalities, deep academic grounding in design and years of experience in consulting to be in full support of your development.
Melis Senova (PhD Founder and Director) This Human
If there's one word I could use to describe my experience working with Zaana, it would be "transformational." Her coaching has been instrumental in transforming my life, enabling me to overcome challenges, embrace my strengths, and unlock my full potential. What makes Zaana distinctive to work with is her background as a Top Tier Management Consultant, where I think she honed her analytical skills and developed a deep understanding of complex issues. The main reason I would highly recommend Zaana to someone else is her unique ability to balance intellectual depth with genuine care and empathy.
Dr Jemma King (Director) Biopsychanalytics Pty Ltd.
I've had the pleasure of working with Dr Zaana as a collaborator and also as her coaching client. Zaana has a very unique set of human qualities that she brings to her work. Firstly, she is incredibly intelligent and at the cutting edge of current trends and movements that benefit business. Even more importantly though, she has incredible emotional intelligence and is able to draw on her deep intuition and empathy to develop appropriate and personal solutions for individuals and organisations. Working with Zaana will change the way you look at the world in the best possible way.
Christian Duell (Director) White Light Education
Zaana has such a sound sense of mutual benefit that I know she will take the lead when she see’s fit and hand back as needed. She delights the participants in the Master of Design Futures in many ways, especially by showing them that taking on challenges while being careful of one's own well-being goes hand in hand. And that all this can be done with grace and ease.
