Leadership with Passion and Commitment to Achieve the Best »

Print friendly

Speaker Grant Fox
 
Leadership with Passion and Commitment to Achieve the BestGrant Fox has been a household name in New Zealand and anywhere that rugby is followed. He first played as an All Black on the 1984 tour in Fiji and played 78 All Black Matches including 46 tests, scoring 1067 points and played his last test in 1993 at the age of 31. Unfortunately he ended his rugby career before the professional era started so he had to earn a living along with the rest of us mere mortals. Grant continued his services to rugby through coaching, and has been awarded an MBE for his services to Rugby.

Whilst he was following his passion, he has also forged a very successful business career which has covered a wide range of experiences in sales roles through to working with Carnegie Sports International NZ Ltd where for the last 12 years he has been Managing Director. Just to show that men can multitask, he has also been contracted to TVNZ for several years as a rugby broadcast commentator. A quick look on the Internet also shows that he has generously donated time to doing presentations at many schools, sports clubs and is now giving us the same opportunity.

Grant and his wife Adele have 2 teenage children to balance their lives. Grant describes some of his attributes as enthusiastic, ambitious, competitive and self motivated -who could contradict those? Above all else he has been very successful in all aspects of his life and would stand the test as a Kiwi icon and a great role model. Don’t miss this special presentation - book now!
