Derek Henderson

Derek Henderson is a Canadian portfolio manager, family enterprise advisor, and author focused on the deeper questions surrounding wealth, fulfillment, and intentional living.

For more than two decades, he has advised entrepreneurs, business owners, and multigenerational families through the complexities of investing, succession, and long-term stewardship. His work sits at the intersection of capital and consciousness — helping clients align financial success with clarity, purpose, and the realities of modern life.

Drawing from years inside wealth management, Derek’s writing blends investment philosophy, behavioral psychology, Stoicism, and lived experience into a more human conversation about success. His perspective challenges the idea that wealth is simply something we accumulate, arguing instead that true wealth is reflected in how we spend our time, direct our attention, and live our lives.

His debut book, The Wealth of Intention: Fortune Beyond Finance, offers a modern framework for navigating money, meaning, and the pursuit of a richer life — both financially and personally.

The Wealth of Intention is the first exploration in Derek’s broader work on wealth, continuity, and intentional living — and the evolving relationship between capital, consciousness, and the lives we build around them.

Derek lives in Canada with his family, where he continues to write, advise, and explore the rhythms between ambition and presence.
