Plante Moran Managing Partner Jason Drake has been featured on Crain’s Detroit Business’s list of “Who’s Who in Detroit,” a recognition that highlights his leadership and impact on the firm, the business community, and the Detroit region. This second annual guide celebrates Southeast Michigan’s most influential decision-makers who are helping shape the region’s business, civic, and cultural landscape.
Jason’s career with the firm began in 1999 as an intern from Michigan State University. Since then, he has helped expand the firm’s global presence by growing international business revenue by more than 400%, leading the establishment of offices across Asia, Europe, and Latin America. In July 2024, he became Plante Moran’s eighth managing partner over the firm’s 100-plus-year history.
At the heart of Jason’s leadership philosophy is the belief that success is something we build together. As Jason shared with Crain’s Detroit Business, “I hope the way I lead models that leadership is about ‘we,’ not ‘me.’ None of us achieves anything alone. Our success has always been built on people investing in one another, sharing what they’ve learned and helping others grow.”
