John McAlister is the global authority on digitally re-imagining business for growth. With several decades of experience working in and with both private and government organisations, there are few on this planet who understand the upside to integrating the proper digital technology into your business AND the downside of implementing without a strategic plan.
From his days starting out as a lowly apprentice in a printer’s shop to helping integrate cutting-edge technology into the Australian government’s tax offices, John had always had a knack for stepping back from the day-to-day work at hand and understanding how processes can be improved.
Embracing the concept that technology is only as efficient as its user to magnificent success with his wide portfolio of clients, John has finally taken his years of experience and boiled it down for CEOs and other C-Suite level executives struggling to bridge the digital divide between yesterday and tomorrow.

“John is a respected authority on the transformation of regulatory reporting from document-based to data-centric. I cite the success of Standard Business Reporting for the Australian government, which John managed and championed, in nearly every presentation I make to policymakers in Washington and U.S. state capitals. John’s leadership and wealth of understanding are sought-after worldwide.”
Hudson Hollister“I’ve been working with John for over 10 years in reducing the effects of government regulation on business and identifying ways to help business be more efficient and productive—how to free themselves up in order to grow.
John’s understanding of business and his way of empathising with business people has brought many improvements in the relationship with government. I have valued his ability to translate what government agencies want into something business people can understand and then reflect business needs back to the government.
He encouraged me to accept the position as co-chair of the Digital Business Council, which is responsible for bringing eInvoicing standards to the Australian business community. This system has been an exciting step forward in transforming the economy, making it more streamlined, integrated and productive.
I wholeheartedly recommend John and his book to every business leader who is ready to achieve long-term growth and profitability for their company.”
Peter Strong“Working with John over the past 10 years has been my absolute pleasure. He is passionate about innovation and the transformational benefits of ‘digital’ in delivering better business outcomes.
John talks about digital transformation in a way that is understandable by decision makers. He finds the right balance between what is ideal and what is achievable, while still keeping the bigger picture in mind. To me, John is the Trusted
Authority in promoting digital transformation within government and for business.”
Gianluca Garbellotto“I have had the privilege of working with John since he was a key stakeholder in the development of SuperStream. His vision and approach were significant factors in the success we know now from standardising superannuation data and payments from employers to funds, creating efficiencies of more than $3 billion per year.
John was also a key proponent of partnering with the business community to establish the Digital Business Council, which creates data standards for electronic invoicing. This system is delivering growth opportunities and savings for business that are expected to grow to $10 billion annually over the next few years, and its standards are now being adopted internationally.
I have no hesitation in recommending John to any business owner or leader looking to maximise their results.”
Emma Dobson“I have worked with John in his senior role at the Australian Tax Office for many years. His approach to leadership and change management has led to new collaboration and implementation techniques that have achieved significant positive change, including the adoption of new strategies and behaviours.
Government is in a better place with a better infrastructure for business growth opportunities, due to the work John has been a part of.”
Matthew Addison“I would like to take this opportunity to recommend John McAlister. John is one of those rare people who knows quite a bit about digital systems and solutions but can translate that back to language that business people can understand. This means he can provide a vital interface between the senior business leader and the IT providers. I found this to be an extremely valuable skill and as a result I came to rely on John for advice in complex situations. John also has an unquenchable thirst for knowledge and new ideas and brings new thinking into discussions and opportunities.
John is also a good relationship manager and finds it easy to build positive working relationships with a diverse range of people. He is pleasant to work with, being able to strike a right balance between persuasive argument and knowing when to stop. I would be more than happy to work with John again should the opportunity arise.”
Mark JacksonMost business leaders are using paradigms from the past to attempt to leap forward by using traditional tactics like automating processes, making staff changes, focusing on incremental changes, turning the manual processes into digital processes, etc.
What they are not doing well, is re-imagining the future of their business from a digital transformation perspective.
That level of thinking is beyond “business as usual”.
That level of thinking requires a mindset shift towards building a “road map” that doesn’t have “stop” signs in your path towards success.
In Stop Automating! Digitally Re-Imagine The Future Of Your Business, you’ll learn:
- Why “patching up” old problems with new digital tools can stall and often trigger your digital growth strategy to dissipate and become ineffective
- How to translate your customer experience into an extraordinary digital experience they never imagined was possible
- How local digital standards can hold you back from international growth, if not addressed tactically and strategically
- How relying solely on internal digital change resources can be a recipe for long-term project myopia
