Who is Daniel Murray?

Daniel Murray has built his career at the intersection of strategy, behavioural science and leadership development. With a background in mathematics, an MBA and extensive experience consulting within Australia's financial services sector, he developed a unique perspective on the relationship between organisational performance and human behaviour.
