Kind words from others…

“Becoming the sole owner of a business after a 20 year partnership, I needed the professional advise and expertise of a Board without forming my own Board of Directors.

Since joining TAB, the support from fellow business owners from a wide range of different industries and trade has been invaluable. Adding to that the personal attention and coaching from Chris has helped, take my business to another level.
Thanks Chris and I look forward to another year of personal and business growth with you and all the members of TAB.”

James Steel, Owner - Gateway Cargo Ltd

“We have been involved with the TAB system for approx. 18 months. We have found Chris to be a useful and knowledgeable business mentor. His input has enabled us to move forward with confidence and we have achieved excellent results both in financial performance and staff morale. Chris takes a genuine interest in our personal well-being and has become a valued confidante.”

Brian Casey, Owner - SeaThru Boat Windscreens

“Chris is an excellent example of someone that can get work done through people (both team members and stakeholders). He is able to balance the demands of his role and deliver outcomes while at the same time manages his relationships in an outstanding way. He has a high degree of empathy for those around him but paradoxically can be tough minded when required.”

John Duncan, Managing Director - Forum New Zealand

“It was a pleasure to work with Chris on the establishment of the CSO’s new home. He’s a great problem solver, consensus builder and an excellent communicator.

Gretchen La Roche, CEO - Christchurch Symphony Orchestra

“An amazing people person, Chris leads from the front and really knows what leading a team is all about. I thoroughly enjoyed my time working with Chris, and I am sure plenty of others will say the same.”

Darren Burden, Executive Director - Kai Tak Sports Park , Hong Kong

“Chris is a caring and passionate manager who thrives under pressure. A big-picture optimist, Chris is well-suited to any role which involves the shaping of organisational priorities and goals. His personable management style and considerable experience in the events and recreation sectors have enabled him to become a well-rounded leader who would be an asset to any organisation.”
