After completing long-term engagements, closing multiple businesses, it was time. A time to break free. An opportunity to travel through Asia. This period was crucial for the development of my next stage. It came when I had lost direction.
Resurgence is a product of that journey.
We are taking and not giving back – a tragedy that so many people had already seen, my eyes were not open. Most of my life had been dedicated to business actively engaged in destroying the environment. It has to stop.
Most of us are striving to be loved and to love. In that process we lose our way from time to time. We must care about ourselves, each other and do more to help each and every person that we can.
Until Resurgence I had led a life of service to others, woefully I had not been helping those people who really needed or deserved it. In life it is easy to be caught in something beyond ourselves and lose our way. We owe it to ourselves to find our true path.
My aim in life is simple – it is to keep it real. Life really is short and should be lived.

Starting BCD Group along with my associates Bruce Tilley and Craig McDermott was a dream come true.
All my life I had wanted to be good at business. Every day I read, watched and listened anything business. Searched out mentors. Started doing business with one of my childhood idols.
Working at BCD Group while a dream was also intense. We had so many businesses that were being managed, so many clients to look after. The high levels of pressure of this culminated in a decision to wind down operations in late 2019.
In our portfolio we had business ranging from Venture Capital, Accounting Firms, IT Consultancy, Block Chain Technology Developers and were one of the few successful groups to be approved for Early-Stage Venture Capital funding.
We partnered with some amazing people like MS Dhoni to promote various events. And we traveled internationally with our products.
Under our consultancy banner, we worked with some very influential people who had helped make lasting and significant changes in the world.

Accounting & Business Coaching
David Hibbins
Business success was the forefront of my mind in this business. Taking all of my knowledge about financial performance and the integration of technology and human resources to produce the best result for the business was our mission.
Accounting is very formulated and a completely necessary part of business and life. Business Coaching allowed me to apply that knowledge to help people exceed their expectations and create a life that they wanted.
During this time I continued to consult directly with major clients applying my extensive knowledge as a CFO and helping chart those financial obstacles that business can present

Senior Accountant 1994-2011

The role with First State Group was such an encompassing role. Starting as a relatively fresh accountant I quickly became involved in one of my loves, working with finance. This role was one of the most rewarding I had in my career. A business that had turnover in the low millions, increasing to turnover in the hundreds of millions. At one stage, in this business, I was involved in managing finance just nearing a billion dollars. Certainly over my tenure I worked in excess of hundreds of millions of dollars of finance and enjoyed liaising with senior banking figures as well as the usual planning and and strategic decisions that are involved at that level of business.
Temperature rise of 1.4 degrees. Bush-fires. Swarming Locusts.Extreme Weather.Gulf Stream.Sea Levels. Ocean Acidity. Declining wildlife. Search any of these key words. Understand what's happening on our earth.It is dramatic and it is scary and it is worthy of our attention.
We can all take easy steps to help the environment. Do not give up it is not too late to help or too far gone. Reduce, Reuse Recycle - its easier than you think. Conserve your water. Volunteer to clean up. Join a group make your voice heard. Travel responsibly.
Its human nature to take little regard for the future. Its time to take that regard - don't leave it up to the few. Lets work together to make it the many. Time to stop taking advantage.
Take time to enjoy your environment. Think how good it is and how you would like it to be forever. Don't discard it like single use plastic.
