Empowering people, enhancing capability & elevating capacity.


Bloom Leadership brings together leadership, culture and high performance to support organisations, schools and teams to thrive.
We believe better people make better leaders. Our work focuses on developing leaders who are self-aware, clear in their purpose and confident in how they show up, while building aligned, high-trust cultures where individuals and teams can perform at their best.
Founders, Nat von Bertouch and Tom Jonas bring a combined 26 years of experience in elite sporting environments, translating lessons from high-performance, high-pressure settings into practical strategies for organisations, schools and teams. Grounded in real-world experience and evidence-based practice, we combine practical tools, relatable case studies and reflective learning to create experiences that are engaging, relevant and immediately applicable.
Our sessions are active, discussion-driven and tailored to each environment. We take the time to understand your people, your context and your challenges, ensuring the learning is personal, meaningful and sustainable.
We focus on building leadership capability through self-awareness, strengthening relationships to drive team performance, and embedding behaviours that translate values into everyday action. The result is stronger leaders, more connected teams and cultures that deliver consistent, high performance.

Nat is a former Australian Diamonds and Adelaide Thunderbirds captain, having led the Australian Diamonds to two World Championship Gold Medals, two Commonwealth Games Silver Medals and Adelaide Thunderbirds to two ANZ Championship Gold Medals.
Off the court, Nat is a business leader, dietitian and wellbeing manager with over 20 years’ experience.
She facilitates leadership and culture workshops for corporate clients, sporting organisations and schools using evidence-based strategies and real world experiences. Her passion is developing positive team cultures and confident leaders that enable both people and businesses to succeed.

Tom’s thirteen-year career with the Port Adelaide Football Club included five as its captain. Alongside his many on-field accolades during this time, Tom achieved his MBA and Bachelor of Laws at the University of Adelaide, as well as establishing small business Hey Diddle Wines with teammate Brad Ebert.
Since retiring in 2023, Tom has continued his focus on leadership capacity and capability development and cultural transformation, working closely with businesses, schools and the South Australian Cricket Association. Tom’s leadership philosophy is grounded in accountability, high performance, and fostering a great team culture through strong relationships, qualities that remain central to the leadership programs he now runs.

Fleurieu Milk engaged Bloom Leadership to deliver leadership training for our team members, and the experience has been outstanding. Tom Jonas and Nat Von Bertouch not only delivered a high-quality, engaging program, they genuinely took the time to understand our business, our people, and our culture. They fitted seamlessly into our team and quickly built strong rapport, which made the training both practical and impactful. The feedback from participants was extremely positive, highlighting Bloom’s clear communication, effective facilitation style, and strong training techniques. The program content and methodology were thoughtfully tailored to suit our operational environment and leadership needs, rather than applying a one-size-fits-all approach. Based on the success of the initial leadership training, we have since continued to utilise Bloom’s expertise across other areas of the business. Most recently, Tom and Nat assisted us with developing team values and facilitating a company collaboration day, including mediation and guided discussion. Their professionalism, adaptability, and ability to create meaningful conversations added significant value. We highly recommend Bloom Leadership to organisations seeking practical, culturally aligned leadership development and facilitation support.

The Bloom Leadership Program has been a transformative addition to our College. It takes a truly collaborative approach to student formation, grounded deeply in our virtues and the Ignatian tradition.
What sets Bloom apart is its relevance - it speaks directly to the challenges and experiences our students are facing right now, with evidence-informed practices and exceptional resourcing
to support their growth.
The program’s dynamic initiatives invite students to see leadership not as a title, but as a series of purposeful, everyday actions - empowering them to lead with confidence, for others and themselves.
Tom and Nat bring this program to life. They are authentic and inspiring leaders who connect meaningfully with students, igniting their potential and helping them realise just how capable and powerful they truly are.
