Nick Barnsdall
Nick Barnsdall is the owner and director of 13 different companies, some of those self-founded, reaching an annual turnover of over $100m. He now specialises in mentoring and building SME businesses to reach their full potential, and has been dubbed a superhero when it comes to launching and overhauling businesses.
Nick bought his first investment property in 1991 at the age of 16, and started his first company at the age of 19. Since then, he has founded, managed and built multiple small, medium and large businesses across several industries.
Nick is highly respected in his community and remains true to his character; down-to-earth, cheeky, likeable and authentic – traits that are evident in the Navig8Biz courses.
Nick is a member of The Australian Institute of Company Directions, The Australian Institute of Management and the Small Business Association of Australia.
Joanne Brooks
Joanne Brooks’ persona is down-to-earth and her energy is contagious. She has spoken at many events, empowering and education women and business owners across the country. Jo is a leading specialist in the field of business education, having founded and built her own startup from zero to 30m in only 18 months. Among this, her personal story has been likened to a Hollywood screenplay – a story that must be told.
With a career spanning over 20 years in finance and banking, and a further 15 years in education, Joanne has also educated and mentored hundreds of clients in commercial lending, career development and business acumen.
“While I’ve worked in many industries, including Financial Services, Education, Manufacturing and Government, my passion lies with Education. Being able to pass on my business and finance skills is a role that means a lot to me. I love nothing more than the lightbulb moments I share with my students; knowing I can transform businesses and lives is extremely rewarding.” ~ Joanne, Founder of Navig8Biz.

“Nick’s mentoring session was exactly what I needed. I’ve been in business for five years, and while we are turning a profit, I wanted to see growth. Nick had me thinking about my market positioning in a way I hadn’t considered. He also opened the door to new product lines, as well as guiding my marketing and branding strategies and developing a five-year plan.”
