About Erin Bowden and EBC Strategies

---

Hi there! I’m Erin, founder of EBC Strategies, a business built on my passion for helping businesses thrive and communities flourish. I grew up in a small town and now proudly raise my family in one, so I know firsthand the dedication, resilience, and heart that go into running a local business. As a mum, I want to see these towns remain vibrant, connected, and full of opportunity for future generations.

With over 20 years in leadership and management, I’ve worked across health, corrections, hospitality, government, and non-profit sectors, gaining a deep understanding of business operations, employee relations, and project management. A career shift led me to reflect on what truly excites me—helping businesses manage change, support their workforce, and develop clear strategies for success.

I specialise in:
✔ Project & Business Strategy – Turning contracts and ideas into structured, actionable plans that lead to measurable success.
✔ Employee & Workplace Relations – Helping businesses resolve conflicts, manage performance, and create positive workplace cultures.
✔ Leadership Mentoring & Coaching – Equipping emerging and experienced leaders with the skills to build strong teams and drive results.
✔ Change Management & Business Growth – Supporting businesses as they scale, pivot, or refine operations to stay competitive.
✔ Trauma-Informed & Strength-Based Approaches – Ensuring leadership, management, and workplace culture foster psychological safety and employee retention.

I take a practical, down-to-earth approach, ensuring businesses don’t just get advice, but real, actionable strategies that lead to measurable results. 

My goal? To help businesses operate more efficiently, build stronger teams, and create workplaces where people and profits thrive together.

I believe in shopping local, supporting each other, and strengthening small communities. When businesses succeed, communities succeed—and I’m here to help make that happen.

At EBC Strategies, I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. I provide tailored, results-driven strategies for small to medium businesses that need practical, no-nonsense solutions for managing change, leading people, and growing sustainably.

I founded EBC Strategies after spending over 20 years working in diverse industries, witnessing firsthand the challenges businesses face in managing employees, navigating workplace complexities, and executing projects effectively. Many businesses have great ideas, strong values, and dedicated teams, but lack the time or expertise to turn vision into action. That’s where I come in.

What sets EBC Strategies apart?
✔ Real-World Experience: I’ve worked across multiple industries, giving me practical, adaptable insights into workplace challenges.
✔ Project & Change Management Expertise: I don’t just strategise—I plan, implement, and deliver outcomes that make a difference.
✔ People-First Approach: Businesses are only as strong as their people. I help strengthen teams, improve workplace culture, and enhance leadership effectiveness.
✔ Tailored Solutions: Every business is unique, and so is my approach. I create customised action plans that fit your specific challenges and goals.
✔ Down-to-Earth, Practical Support: I cut through corporate jargon and deliver straightforward, effective strategies that work for real businesses.

At EBC Strategies, my mission is simple: help businesses build stronger foundations, refine their operations, and empower their people. Whether it’s developing leadership, improving employee retention, or managing complex projects, I work alongside business owners to create sustainable success—not just quick fixes.
