Swinburne University of Technology

“I feel fortunate to know John De Bono, and over many years I have leveraged John’s unique skillset to coach, train and strengthen leader development and team effectiveness. His approach is values-informed, restorative and authentic. John’s workshops are energetic and interactive – while his approach is evidence based; he shares knowledge in relatable and relevant ways.
The reality is that I personally have learnt something new from John with each encounter – he has strengthened my leadership approach and expanded my management toolkit.
I couldn’t recommend John more highly.”
