Danielle Dobson
Coach, leader, facilitator, speaker and author

Danielle Dobson is a leadership consultant, speaker, and author specialising in inclusive leadership, workplace equity, and the evolving dynamics of diversity and inclusion. With a career spanning almost 30 years in finance, corporate leadership, and gender equity research, Danielle helps organisations cut through the noise and implement data-driven, business-focused strategies that drive real impact.
As the author of Breaking the Gender Code, Danielle works with leaders and teams to challenge the invisible ‘codes’ shaping workplace dynamics, shifting the focus from outdated norms to optimising performance through diverse perspectives and contributions. She sees DEI not as a compliance exercise, but as a core growth engine – a driver of innovation, productivity, and long-term business success.
Danielle’s approach is practical, evidence-based, and results-driven. By shifting the conversation away from identity and towards how inclusion strengthens business performance, she equips leaders with real-world strategies to break unspoken rules, harness innovation, and create workplaces where people and profits thrive together.
