About us
Storyline Communications was founded on a simple belief: every organisation deserves access to experienced communications leadership, advice and delivery regardless of whether they need it for a day, a project or as part of their executive team.
No two organisations are the same, and neither are the challenges they face or opportunities that are in their reach.
Some clients need a trusted adviser to help navigate a critical decision. Others need a senior executive around the leadership table. Others need experienced support to deliver a complex project or strengthen their internal capability.
Whatever the need, we tailor every engagement to the organisation — not the other way around.
By combining executive judgement with practical delivery, we provide the right level of leadership, advice and support to help organisations navigate complexity, build trust and achieve meaningful outcomes.
Our difference
Clarity comes before communication.
We help organisations make better decisions, build trust and communicate with confidence.
We believe that most organisations often don't need more words, they need some clearer thinking.
At Storyline Communications, we don't begin with messages or media releases.
We begin by asking the right questions, understanding the broader context, and identifying what matters most, to whom, and why.
Grounded in the curiosity of a journalist and the judgement of a trusted adviser, we help leaders make sense of complexity before developing the strategies, narratives and communication that build trust and inspire confidence.
That's the Storyline difference.
The story behind Storyline
Meet Kristi High, Founder and Chief Communications Officer
Trusted when decisions are complex. Valued when the stakes are high.
Kristi has helped leaders navigate some of the most challenging moments organisations face.
She's equally passionate about helping organisations recognise opportunities —turning achievements, milestones and moments of progress into stories that build reputation, strengthen relationships and support future growth.
Working alongside CEOs, executive teams and Boards, she helps organisations bring clarity to complexity, make confident decisions, build trust and communicate with purpose.
Her background in journalism, corporate affairs and executive leadership shapes a practical, insightful approach grounded in curiosity, judgement and clarity. She believes the best communication starts long before the first word is written. That's why she asks the questions others don't, uncovers what really matters and develops strategies grounded in clear thinking rather than assumptions.
Whether engaged as a Fractional Chief Communications Officer, strategic adviser or consultant, Kristi becomes a trusted extension of the leadership team — bringing calm judgement, practical expertise and a genuine commitment to achieving meaningful outcomes.
She's also very fond of an em dash — a throwback to her days as a newspaper journalist, when they were a perfectly respectable part of the writer's toolkit.
How we work
You'll work directly with senior counsel from the first conversation through to the final piece of work.

Whether it's a single project or an ongoing partnership, you'll receive the same level of strategic thinking, practical support and personal commitment.
Our network
Storyline Communications works with a small network of trusted specialists, engaged as required to complement each project.
