Plante Moran Managing Partner Jason Drake has been featured in Crain’s Detroit Business “Who’s Who Influential Leader” guide — a recognition that highlights his exceptional leadership and impact on Plante Moran, the broader business community, and Detroit. This inaugural guide features Southeast Michigan’s most influential decision-makers who are shaping the region’s business, civic, and cultural spaces.
Jason’s journey with Plante Moran began in 1999 as an intern from Michigan State University. Over the past 25 years, he’s played a pivotal role in expanding our international footprint, helping grow our international business revenue by over 400%, and leading the establishment of Plante Moran offices in China, Mexico, India, and Japan. In July 2024, Jason became Plante Moran’s eighth managing partner in our over 100-year history.
Jason’s leadership is rooted in a strong commitment to our people. Jason shared with Crain’s Detroit Business, “My leadership philosophy centers on humility — it’s about ‘we,’ not ‘me.’ I believe in checking ego at the door, leading by example, and embracing change to make the firm better every day.”
