The Hive Growth Story
Why we exist:
Hive Growth transforms technical experts and founders into high-impact strategic leaders by anchoring their influence in personal authenticity and collective wisdom. We help complex organisations navigate growth and transformation by breaking down professional isolation, leveraging peer-driven insights, and building trust through a sharp, human-centric approach to curiosity and problem-solving. By stripping away corporate filler and focusing on the fundamental drivers of change, we empower our clients to resolve their most isolated challenges and create sustainable, meaningful value.
Hive Growth works with CEOs, founders and startup teams who are carrying decisions that nobody around them can properly weigh in on. We coach and advise on the practical side of growing a business: how you sell, where your strategy is soft, and what kind of leader the company needs you to be next. Our approach is grounded and plain-spoken. We look at what is working, what is broken and what to change first, then help you do one or two things well rather than ten things badly. The aim is a business that grows because its leaders get sharper and its decisions get better.
Based in Melbourne / Naarrm with global reach.

After over 20 years in building technology and technology-enabled businesses, helping businesses achieve growth, and building leadership capabilities, Brian founded Hive Growth to bring his experience to a more specific audience.
Known as a highly creative, results driven and effective leader, Brian brings the ability to identify and execute growth opportunities across a wide range of industries.
Fifteen-plus years in consulting taught him to help leaders to quickly lock onto the key issues, the key next steps, and the key value drivers, and to create a path forward.
A well-know facilitator and lecturer in strategy, sales, leadership and finance, Brian has led groups and individuals through powerful skill-building workshops at startups, corporates and universities, including Wharton, Goizueta, Leiden University, Northwestern University, Washington University and others.
