Russell is one of the pioneers in the careers industry, a wisdom-filled veteran.

He's the Founder and Managing Director of EPR and now Russell Johson and Associates - an organisation partnering exclusively with executives and professionals helping them navigate career-limiting situations and achieve their full career potential.

Russell has a fascinating career story of his own.

Early in his career he was a Minister of religion - and left

In the decade following he became a senior executive with a Fortune 500 group company in the US - and left

Wanting a meaningful new challenge, when he could not find appropriate career support, he spent several years researching areas of interest and eventually launched Australia's first career firm dedicated to serving executives and professionals.
