An experienced professional with two distinct but complementary career paths — business and human behaviour.
As a consultant in business and project management, Alan has led some of Australia’s most high-profile projects, including serving as Owners’ Project Director and CEO of the entity owning Sydney Olympic Stadium. He has also negotiated some of the country’s largest property deals.
In parallel, Alan works in the field of human behaviour, helping individuals and organisations manage stress, enhance performance, and build resilience. With a strong track record in training and mentoring middle and senior leaders, his expertise bridges the worlds of strategic planning, major project leadership, and psychological wellbeing.

Drawing from both practical experience and current research, he delivers engaging and relevant learning experiences that prepare students for strong and successful careers.
