Always at the forefront of management theory and practice, Brian founded Donovan Leadership to share his knowledge and passion. Since 2007, Donovan Leadership has been actively inspiring professionals to new heights, uncovering new perspectives to expand possibilities, and transforming technical specialists into leaders who succeed.

Our founderโ€™s reputation as a thought leader has earned Donovan Leadership a client list that reads like a roll call of Australian industryโ€™s best and brightest. We take pride in guiding talented individuals to discover the wealth of possibilities that lie within.

Brianโ€™s three adult children have learned how to lead him and their personalities and achievements make him proud every day. Also an avid traveller, heโ€™s particularly fond of Italyโ€™s fine food and wine culture.
