The ASPIRE Executive Mentoring Program Explained
For the past 20 years I’ve worked alongside some amazing people. I’ve coached national and elite sports teams, represented some of the world’s most respected manufacturers and successfully implemented some major policy reforms. I’ve also been the CEO of some extraordinary companies, briefed hundreds of policy makers and raised millions of dollars for clients.
Unlike large consulting firms I pride myself - and our team - on being humble. We are niche, responsive and most importantly, innovative. We don’t use all the modern jargon to sell a sales pitch; because we understand what it means to own a business and be an entrepreneur.
The ASPIRE Program has a principle focus of inspiring young executives to challenge themselves and reach for the stars. We all desire a more innovative approach to decision making and we desperately look for leaders willing to take risks; by thinking more about the future and less about themselves. At ASPIRE, we want to see more 35 year old CEOs. It’s that simple!
ASPIRE is a major passion of ours. It’s affordable and extremely well structured. This isn’t a podcast and you will be pushed beyond your limits. Our program is a practical, hard-hitting, committed one-on-one mentoring program, delivered in a way many dont.
Are you up for the challenge? We certainly are. And remember this: elite athletes rarely make it to the top alone. They all have a mentor and a coach. It’s these relationships that breed success.
the Program
While a majority of the ASPIRE program is incredibly well structured, we also tailor the program to fit within your work-life demands. We certainly don’t ‘cookie cut’ a solution; we understand that everyone has different drivers, time frames and goals. Moreover, family is important! So everything we do compliments your ‘world’. Yes, we hold you accountable, but to succeed you need to enjoy the mentoring journey.
Balance
You can’t be an amazing leader if you’re not balanced. How do you find that balance and who are you accountable to?
Benchmarking
Benchmarking is such a corporate term but ultimately you need to set milestones and achieve goals on time. It’s called discipline.
Evolution
The most inspirational leaders not only embrace failure they value evolution. They adapt, work on themselves and achieve. We’ll show you how.
Exploration
Great leaders learn new techniques and they think out side of the box. We’ll challenge you on leadership concepts and theories you’ve never heard of.
Don’t do leadership alone
Did you know a single bullock can pull 10 tonnes and yet two, joined together, can pull nearly 30 tonnes.
Value
It’s what you do away from your career that makes you an amazing leader.
Our Values
Our logo has been picked on purpose. The Tree Pose resembles balance, stability and strengthening your core. In our view, you can’t be an effective leader if you’re not balanced.
The key to success is to stop making excuses.
Explore the intrinsic value of giving back. Great leaders are generous with their time and give back to their community.
Your friends, family and even close colleagues, should not be your most trusted strategic advisors.
Wealth should never determine leadership success.
Remember, it takes various techniques to development a master piece. Embrace other disciplines.

Leadership Fundamentals
What’s the most important element missing in modern leadership? Integrity. If you strive to be an amazing leader do the basics: do what you say you will do, turn up on time and never complain about being busy.
Leadership & Resilience
Mountaineering and leadership have a lot in common. Firstly, mountaineers are technically proficient. Secondly, they are humble. They need to be otherwise they die. Thirdly, they are resilient. Sound familiar? We thought so.
Leadership & Pressure
Heat is used to bring impurities to the surface. Anyone can be a leader, but few leaders genuinely change lives. You become an extraordinary leader when you have proven to cope with serious pressure. And not just once. Time and time again.
Testimonials
Julia, National Contract Manager, New Zealand
I was fortunate enough to work with Dean during his time as CEO for School Support Limited in NZ. Dean brought to the company a fresh approach and a dynamic leadership style.
He had the ability to nurture the growth of a large team with his open communication style which was no easy feat with staff being spread the length of New Zealand. Dean took the time to understand my role, encourage me to take on more responsibility and involve me in the strategic direction of the company.
I would not be as far along in my professional career without the support I received from Dean. His open and supportive leadership style along with his belief in my ability has led me to go on and set up my own business. Dean has been a major influence in my work life and continues to mentor me giving me the confidence and courage to always push forward, succeed and strive for more.
Julie, CHSP Coordinator, Perth WA
If you aspire to become a Senior Manager or a CEO, I highly recommend Dean as a mentor. To have Dean in your corner is like having money in the bank. I have worked in the aged care sector for 22 years in Coordination/Supervisory roles, 20 years in State Government Health and more than 40 years experience in NFP, Boards and Community Development. I worked with Dean when he was the CEO of a large aged care provider, providing support to over 3,000 aged care clients and their families, and a large workforce of both paid workers and volunteers. I got to see the way Dean thinks, works and collaborates. He is a big picture thinker, a strategist, a driven individual, but most importantly, he is a people person, someone who selflessly brings people alongside of him. A breath of fresh air in today’s business environment. Dean is acutely aware of the importance of understanding business from the ground up and the value of partnerships. A highly respected CEO of more than 15 years, Dean has a wealth of experience and key networks, to help mentor and guide you on your own personal journey to becoming a CEO.
Amanda, Branch Manager, SW WA
I had the privilege of working with Dean when he was CEO at client based organisation. Dean is skilled at all aspects of his profession, especially in the management of very diverse personalities. Dean is an incredible CEO, his dedication and strengths inspired all that worked with him. Best of all he gets results.
Dean was always happy to teach us his secrets for the good of our organisation and our client's. He truly gets behind the service at hand, and is genuine and convincing in leading us to loftier goals.
