Philip’s philosophy, based on his years of management experience, is that good people are vital for successful businesses, but without a sound plan well communicated, good people are not going to achieve the business’s potential.
Philip obtained qualifications in marketing, economics and agriculture which took him overseas for 12 years, working for Lever Brothers, Cheseborough Ponds. Back in NZ he has worked as a change manager in many larger companies.
Philip’s past roles include:
GM Rural, Allied Farmer’s Ltd
Divisional Manager Seed & Grain PGG Ltd
GM Marketing Sealord Products Ltd
