Matt Shanahan

For almost 30 years I have been designing, facilitating and leading personal, professional and organisational development programs. From a very young age I have been fascinated by why people do the work they do - and the impact that has on their lives, the people around them and the world at large.

I have a strong belief that the world is a beautiful but also complex and sometimes fragile place - and that we have a duty to contribute to the common good in any way we can. In my professional life I see countless individuals, teams and organisations who are actually holding themselves back by not facing into the reality of their current state. What I set out to do is help them find their potential so they can move forward.

I am fascinated by the human condition and the impact that the systems around us - natural and human made - have on our lives. I believe that the ONLY tool humans have to solve any challenge is genuine connection and the conversation that flows from that.

​

I provide workshop facilitation and coaching at the board and executive level, as well as design and delivery of systemic leadership programs and change interventions.

​

I have an Honours Degree in Psychology (UNSW) and and currently studying a Masters of Leadership & Management (NIODA).

I have accreditations in the following assessments & courses:

  • Human Synergistics: LSI, GSI, LI, MI

  • HBDI

  • MBTI

  • Certified Results Coach 

  • Certified End of Life Coach
