The Design Business Council (DBC) is led by Carol Mackay and Greg Branson, two industry veterans with over 30 years of experience running a successful design studio. While Greg specialises in the business of design-optimising processes and operations — Carol focuses on creativity, strategy, and client engagement.
Their unique approach to mentoring and coaching reflects their belief that every creative business is different. By combining their distinct perspectives, they help designers build sustainable, values-driven businesses that align with their goals and lifestyles. Through personalised guidance, the DBC empowers creative professionals to navigate the business of design with confidence.
