Bio
Colin Smith
I had the pleasure of working with Geoff while he was the CEO at SGS. Geoff is a clear thinking, energetic, strategic leader who leads from the front. He has a concise and direct communication style that he uses to engage and challenge his team. His enquiring and challenging style results in strong development of those working for him by demonstrating confidence in their ability aiding them to reach their full potential. Geoff also knows when his team need support. I have personally experienced this while working for Geoff and the subsequent years since. I still view Geoff as a mentor and coach. I have no hesitation in recommending Geoff.
Mike Hodgkinson
Geoff is a world class professional, a leader in design and advertising, and a really good guy.
