About Johann Nogueira | Founder and thought leader in business and AI
About Johann

It started with one listing on eBay.

In 2004, while I was doing my PhD at the University of Melbourne, I listed a piece of software on eBay.

It sold 20 times in one night. That taught me the power of systems and leverage. I've been building with them ever since.

What I do now

Helping leaders build more human businesses.

I help leaders use AI to build more capable teams, stronger systems and more human businesses.

I build AI businesses, and I'm often invited to share what I'm learning with CEOs, founders, boards and leadership teams. I talk about AI adoption, workforce transformation, decision-making and execution.

How I work

Workshops, not lectures.

I've built businesses across e-commerce, advertising, digital services, building-management software and AI.

Along the way I've worked with 2,500+ companies. That's why every session is built so people leave with something they can implement.

What I believe

“Entrepreneurship powered by AI gives people the ability to turn more of what they imagine into reality. This is an extraordinary time to be building.”
