Senator Boats owner puts NZ manufacturing question to the
Prime Minister...

Grant Simmonds, Managing Director of Napier-based Senator Boats, put a direct question to Prime Minister Chris Luxon during last weeks Hawke's Bay Chamber of Commerce event in front of 150 business owners. Simmonds told the PM that Senator Boats employs 40 people and exports to Australia, then asked what's being done for NZ manufacturing and Lean thinking.

Luxon replied: that he loves the Senator Boats website, thanked the business for backing the Government's new India free trade agreement, and praised Senator's own Lean practices, drawing on his time running Lean and Six Sigma at Unilever.

Luxon told the room that a common language for improvement is what makes Lean work, and challenged business owners to disrupt their own models, get curious about new technology, and use it to lift productivity.

For a 30-year Hawke's Bay manufacturer already living that approach, it was a solid endorsement straight from the top. Nice one Grant and Team!

What a fantastic afternoon at our Successful Selling seminar with Mark Greer! 🙌

Our participants walked away with real, actionable strategies - from understanding what selling truly is, to the Top 10 Must Do's, and why building genuine trust with your clients is the foundation of every successful sale.

One of the key themes of the session was the power of a strong brand promise.

When your clients know exactly what you stand for and what you will deliver, selling becomes a natural extension of that relationship - not a hard pitch.

We look forward to seeing how the practical tools, fresh perspectives, and Top 10's we sent you away with impact your businesses and teams. Great stuff.

Attending the She Leads event at the Hawke's Bay Chamber of Commerce this week was an inspiring experience.

We heard from a range of women leaders working within the not-for-profit sector, who spoke passionately about the resilience, excellence, and impact of women in this space.
A key theme throughout the event was the importance of sustainability within the sector to ensure long-term support and meaningful change for communities.

A shout out to our very own Ashleigh Ritchie for showcasing her MC skills. A fantastic event by the Hawke's Bay Chamber of Commerce - thank you.
