I'm Adjunct Professor Damien Taylor PhDÂ
I co-founded Be The Leader because I’m passionate about unlocking what makes great leaders tick. Having competed as a world and national champion athlete and coached high performers, I’ve spent years researching and learning from over 160 senior executives across corporate, military, sports, and academic fields. Their stories, values, and insights drive me to create leadership training that’s real, transformative, and grounded in global wisdom. My mission is to empower you to lead with purpose and make a lasting impact.
“I have had the pleasure of working with Damien and experiencing his leadership approach first-hand. He creates a space where you feel safe to think deeply, reflect honestly, and unpack challenges without judgment.
- Carol Fox - Confident Communication Expert - Author, Trainer, Speaker, Coach
"Dr. Damien Taylor was engaged during a critical period of transformation as we navigated multiple large acquisitions and sought to optimise operational efficiency. His unique blend of academic rigor and practical experience during this process delivered significant time and cost savings, whilst accelerating effective stakeholder alignment and integration that strengthened our market position.."
Thomas Chaffey – The Stripes Group – DirectorÂ
What Damien demonstrated to me is that it is not rocket science but simply common sense by having a better understanding of yourself, your values, beliefs, and purpose, which will give you the confidence to manage the various decisions in both your professional and private life appropriately.
