Dan’s journey is marked by the highs and lows of business and entrepreneurship.
“After some soul searching during a particularly tough season in our business, we had to face what was holding us back and understand what it would take to generate consistency of performance, results, and success, without draining the life out of us. We dove into every aspect of our business and what we came to realise was, it didn't matter how strong our desire, if we didn't have the right people, culture, systems and processes in place, we were always going to struggle.”
Through it all, every experience has shaped his approach. He developed insights into the critical importance of nurturing a culture of excellence and performance within organisations and turned their business into a thriving, successful workplace, surpassing what they dreamed possible.
1000 Feet Deep was born out of this journey.
While continuing as a builder until 2022, despite the accolades and achievements of their building company, Dan sensed a deeper calling - a shift from building homes to building people. This profound realisation ignited the inception of 1000 Feet Deep, a venture rooted in empowering leaders to unlock their teams’ fullest potential.
At 1000 Feet Deep, Dan offers more than just guidance; he offers a partnership in transformation. His mission is clear, “to see you achieve yours”, by unlocking the potential of teams and deepening foundations, ensuring not just short-term success, but sustainable growth and lasting impact.
