About Dan
Dan loves to serve people and is on a mission to empower them with the mindset and tools to succeed. He believes that continuous personal and professional development, combined with doing what we do best is the key to unlocking our full potential.

A certified trainer and facilitator with Blair Singer Training Academy, Dan delivers powerful presentations, keynotes, workshops and training. Recently running masterclasses for organisations such as Rotary, Educate Plus and the Tourism Industry Council of South Australia.
His pathway has been quite varied by industry, yet always focused on people. Be it in retail, the obligatory stint in pizza delivery, freelancing, building a communications agency, selling property development solutions or coaching business owners, his success has always been dependent on his ability to harmoniously connect to and work with people.
Never was this more critical than in building his own business. We all know that people buy from other people that they know, like and trust. Therefore, he had to learn pretty quickly how to listen well in order to earn trust. And listening is a key skill for any great coach.
As a Maximizer* and Activator*, the most rewarding part of Dan’s work as a coach is motivating people and teams to take action, seeing them shift and create an outcome they didn’t think was possible. With a focus on career, business and life goals, Dan takes a strengths-based approach to engage with and motivate his clients to discover and map their talents, purpose and vision for their future. This encapsulates personal, family, career and business success as he strongly believe that how we do anything is how we do everything.
Accountability is the glue that holds the whole process together. Once his clients are clear on their purpose, he holds them accountable to do the right things and deal with the resistance that comes up along the way. And believe us, there’s resistance! Our little voice tries to take us out of the game and out of the arena at every sign of weakness and confusion.
“It reinvigorated my drive to succeed; not just in my career, but in my family and personal life and most importantly in myself. He won’t do the work for you... but with his coaching, he will ensure failure is not an option.”
