Rachel Hales is the visionary founder of Get Synergised, a business consultancy born from over 30 years of experience at the intersection of business and community. Her mission is to turn the idea of “business as a force for good” into a practical and sustainable reality - where businesses, non-profits, and public sector partners work together to drive meaningful, measurable change.

Rachel’s passion for social impact was inspired early in life by her parents’ compassion - including the powerful moment they welcomed a homeless ex-offender into their home. From this, she witnessed the transformative power of sharing resources, skills, time, finances, and kindness to help others thrive. These formative experiences, along with a career in leadership roles supporting children, young people, and families facing disadvantage and challenges, shaped her deep belief that collaboration across sectors creates a synergy far greater than the sum of its parts.

At Get Synergised, Rachel and her team empower businesses to play a unique role in helping communities build resilience and flourish - while also strengthening their own sustainability, reputation, and long-term impact as responsible way to do business.
