Brett Dashwood Managing Director
Brett Dashwood edp, is the President & CEO of Dashwood Enterprises Pty Ltd, Managing Director of Dashwood Consulting, and Vice President-Asia Pacific for OutputLinks.
Working in the electronic document systems industry for almost two decades, Dashwood has held technical and management roles in both the service provider and vendor sides of the industry. Positions have included local, regional and global roles, ranging from hands on technical at Salmat in the early 90's to CEO of PrintSoft Americas. He is a respected professional internationally who has been involved in document solutions, run and created training programs, and presented to a wide level of audiences on five continents; extensively in the Asia Pacific region. Most of Dashwood's projects, presentations, articles, and training courses, have been centred around high-volume transactional, transpromotional, and multi-channel document solutions.
In 2002 Dashwood received his EDP (Electronic Document Professional) certification from Xplor International and was recertified in 2007. That same year he was the recipient of the EDP Award of Merit for outstanding service to the industry internationally (OutputLinks article, PrintSoft article).
Outside the industry, Dashwood also manages Dragonfly Inn with his wife Nicole, and is the Business Manager for his wife's dance school TOP HAT Dance Academy, as well as being a founding partner of Triptych Distillery.
Beyond his professional life, Dashwood's involvement in Scouting since young has seen him - along with a group of fellow ex-Rovers - start the Skipper Holland BP Guild, where as well as being an active member, he is also the PR Officer for the Rover Memorial Chalet Warburton, a property that the guild provides warden duties for.
Dashwood also has a passion for 4WD'ing; in particular Jeeps. He was a recent serving President of the Melbourne Jeep Owners Club, the largest active Jeep owners club in Australia, and was the Event Director for the National Jeep Jamboree 2010. Held ever two years around the country, the 2010 event became the largest Jeep owner's event ever held in Australia.
