Brad Sugars is the founder and CEO of ActionCOACH, the world’s number one business coaching firm with more than 1,000 offices in 26 countries.

He says his business career began in Australia when he was seven years old and decided to lease his Christmas presents to his brothers. After earning a degree in accounting from Queensland University in Brisbane, he became a “serial entrepreneur,” owning or running more than 30 different businesses, including a magazine, a pizza wholesaler, and a women’s retail boutique – using a series of systemized tools to grow sales and profit in each one.

After teaching his marketing techniques to Robert Kiyosaki’s students in Hawaii, Brad developed his own seminar company and expanded his one-on-one coaching practice to include virtually every industry and business category.

The result was Action International, one of the first “business coaching” companies in the world – focused exclusively on business education, team building and profit growth.After a rebrand in 2006 to the current ActionCOACH identity, the company also added South Africa to its list of global franchise offices.

Today, ActionCOACH is ranked as the world’s leading international business coaching franchise.

A best-selling author of 14 highly acclaimed business books, Brad has taught nearly a half-million people worldwide how to create business, real estate and financial success.

He currently resides in Las Vegas with his wife, Jen, and two children.
