Glenn Moir (CMInstD) will be the first person to tell you what failure looks like when you can’t see the forest for the trees. He discusses why expensive lessons have contributed to better long-term decisions.

Starting his career, first with the NZ Forest Service in Hokitika (1985), Glenn later pursued a Ranger Certification and a Commerce Degree and was also involved in the formation of the Forest Management Group (1993) - a business involved in forest investment, management, harvesting and consulting throughout New Zealand.

As well as a partner in numerous forests throughout the Hawkes Bay, Wairarapa, Canterbury, Otago and Southland, Glenn is also a partner in a family-owned pet food business in Southland.
