Testimonials for Dan Collins
Dan Collins is one of those rare speakers who 'walks his talk'. I've been fortunate enough to see Dan present live and he had the audience in the palm of his hand . . . engaging, powerful and a solid message that applies to business and life.
Rob Redenbach
The message was brilliant. Dan’s delivery was very clear and easy to follow and with his stories to help link his message to practical situations it certainly engaged the audience. I actually gained a lot out of his presentation yesterday.
Jowat Universal Adhesives Australia Pty Ltd
Dan has a comfortable presentation style and you could see him relax when using some of his experiences and they were relevant and humorous (appropriate). We didn’t have a lot of questions; however I’ve never seen us all take notes as much as any other presenter we’ve had. I would take this positively though as it means we all took some valuable points away with us.

Dan has excellent presentation skills. He uses the floor space well and interacts with his slides to reinforce the content of his lecture. He modulates the tone of his voice at the right times to maximise the impact of the content he is delivering. The aspect of engaging the audience content and analogies was the highlight of Dan's presentation. From the outset, he captured the audience with personal as well as general anecdotes that were closely linked to the formal lecture content.
Griffith University
Dan is very energetic and enthusiastic in his style of presentation and he always appears to be well prepared and knowledgeable on the topics. On the several occasions he has addressed our groups he has quickly been able to connect with the audience. He uses his experience of teamwork and goal setting in a simple manner to get the audience's attention at an early stage. Dan always allows the opportunity for questions and discussion and actively encourages participants. If the discussion heads off topic he is very adept at steering it back in the right direction without it appearing to be forced.
Continental Tyres of Australia Pty. Ltd
Dan is an energetic, easy to listen to and engaging presenter. Dan's stories of his own successes and failures were told in way that demonstrated insight and the ability to reflect and learn. I enjoyed his "no excuse" policy and will take this back to my work place to ensure we do not have a victim mentality. Dan created a comfortable group dynamic where some great discussion flowed.

Dan Collins's Biography
There’s no better feeling than winning, delivering on expectations, achieving goals, executing skills and living out values. It’s the feeling of looking back on what you’ve achieved as a leader and team collective, as well as reaping the benefits of success. Simply put, winning feels fantastic!
This is what Dan Collins all about…‘Assisting leaders to create winning environments.’
He’s a management consultant who’s obsessed with taking that which is average and turning it into a winning culture. Through partnering with leaders, I implement the right programs where extraordinary results are inevitable.
Dan’s past sporting career has been the founding bedrock for the results he’s gained in the corporate space. Being exposed to and competing in four Olympic Games, including a range of various high performance environments has enabled him to identify the common characteristics in all winning cultures.
But there is one caveat that is inextricably linked to his greatest strength. Dan is down the line & rigorous, unafraid to deliver the ‘tough stuff’ that others tippy-toe around or just don’t have the guts to address. The benefits however, far outweigh any small amount of discomfort. Having a management consultant in your corner who creates passion, camaraderie and heart within the organisation is a driving force for executing a winning culture.
Dan Collins believes that every culture is the result of the sum of the individuals involved; irrespective of title, position or hierarchy. Poor culture is a reflection of poor leadership, and poor leadership is the result of poor personal awareness and responsibility.
In response to this, Dan Collins works on all levels of the company to create a winning culture. Dan delivers the tough stuff that others tip-toe around, revealing his passion, heart and care and sacrificing comfort for results. His unique model establishes and aligns individual goals with company purpose. This in turn reinvigorates staff passion and performance, creating environments where individuals are motivated by the attainment of achievement and success.
Creating and sustaining a winning culture requires an environment that incorporates everything Dan stands for: passion, camaraderie, accountability and growth.
