About the author

Playing a Bigger Game has been Rowdy McLean's life story. A successful, yet down to earth, entrepreneur and business leader, Rowdy retired at 34, became bored and got back in the game, creating new companies (that he still owns and runs today) and turning others around.

He now helps organisations, teams and individuals play a bigger game, in business, leadership and life.

As an international keynote speaker Rowdy presents at conferences and events across the globe as well as running corporate immersions, single or multi day master classes, executive mentoring programs and facilitating offsite meetings and retreats.

Rowdy has spoken to over 250 000 people in the USA, Europe, Asia and Australia. His book Play a Bigger Game has been published in 7 countries.

An adventurer at heart, Rowdy has climbed Mt Kilimajaro, kayaked in Antarctica and tracked gorillas in Rwanda. He has played professional rugby league, run marathons, spent time on the Serengeti with the Masaii warriors and regularly takes leaders up into the heart of Arnhem Land.

Rowdy has a Masters Degree in Business Administration and is a graduate of the Disney Institute. He is a fellow of the Australian Institute of Management, the Customer Service Institute of Australia, and recipient of the Certified Speaking Professional designation (the highest honour awarded to speakers across the globe).
