Dean Addie is the Co-founder, CEO, and CRO of T4 Group.

Dean also co-founded EIS in 1996 and sold out in 2023 to allow the young ones to do their thing.

He studied at the school of hard knocks. He is still studying. Dean led EIS through safety culture change that culminated in 700,000 hours lost time incident free.

Dean is a family man who enjoys family times and spending time with friends. He enjoys reading and cooking. He is referred to as Gordon Ramsay; not due to his cooking ability but due to his propensity to swear if anything goes wrong in the kitchen.
