Our Founder, Zac Parish
Zac Parish works with organisations to identify where workforce performance is constrained, where risk is emerging, and what is driving operational pressure.
His experience spans leadership development, behavioural science, resilience, workplace performance, and strategic implementation across infrastructure, healthcare, corporate, and high-pressure operational environments.
Prior to founding Awareness Academy, Zac spent over 25 years in senior business development, strategic advisory, and enterprise solution environments helping organisations improve alignment, accountability, execution, and leadership effectiveness.
Zac’s work integrates behavioural science, resilience methodologies, Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), attention training, and evidence-based wellbeing frameworks to improve clarity, resilience, communication, and decision-making under pressure.
He also spent six years training as a Buddhist monk, studying attention, awareness, emotional regulation, compassion practices, and the deeper mechanics of human behaviour and suffering.
This combination of operational leadership experience and contemplative training provides a unique perspective on workforce performance, resilience, and sustainable behavioural change.
Within Awareness Academy, Zac leads the development of workforce diagnostic methodology, leadership advisory, and intervention strategy.
