The founder of the Shavano Family Office is Dean Hales, who left school in 1999, and within a year had started an accounting diploma and turned around his first company.
He attributes the success of the many companies he has since led, invested in and advised to four key pillars: sound strategy, talented people, solid financial backing, and an unwavering focus on execution.
His Christianity shapes his business and charitable approach.
The Shavano Family Office is the primary vehicle for the support of multiple charities which promote health, family, education, and community resilience.
When he is not working, Dean spends time with family, and enjoys manning the BBQ and the great outdoors.
