About Dan Tipney:
Dan’s role at VetLed primarily involves providing insights into human performance gained from his perspective across multiple fields; formally as a semi-professional athlete, sports coach, pilot instructor, cabin crew member and currently as a commercial pilot and human factors trainer.

Across all fields Dan has consistently observed positive change as a direct result of non-technical factors such as leadership, communication, wellbeing and in particular positive organisational culture.

He has written and delivered training courses to cabin crew and pilots, combining non-technical skills with systems and processes such as checklists and safety reporting. As such, the power of a just culture and the associated growth mindset forms the basis for much of his work.

Dan greatly enjoys developing his knowledge across a wide range of subjects which he believes contribute towards human performance. He has recently completed courses in Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy, Positive Psychology and Process Communication Model.
