Our Exec Team
Leon Sheehan - CEO
Leon Sheehan is a respected voice in customer experience strategy and digital transformation, with more than two decades in New Zealand's ICT sector. He's focused on how technology can be harnessed to create scalable, human-centred experiences for SMEs and enterprise clients alike.
As CEO since 2018, and co-owner following Digital Island's transition to private ownership in March 2025, Leon has helped shape the company into a proud Kiwi challenger brand – known for its agility, innovation and genuine care for clients.
That challenger mindset drives everything from how the team solves problems to how they show up for customers: never satisfied with the status quo, always looking for a better way. Leon is equally passionate about building a positive, people-first culture internally, believing that a great customer experience starts with a great team experience.
What motivates Leon most is a deep passion for customer experience done well. He's driven to cut through complexity and modernise contact centre environments, with a focus on helping New Zealand businesses evolve as the CX landscape in Aotearoa continues to change.
