transparency and mitigate risk. His ability to recognise future needs today, and target<br />

solutions accordingly, have led to the successful selling and introduction of multiple<br />

products and ideas throughout his period with Toyota. More recently, he developed<br />

valuable marketing skills in the services industry working with Xerox Canada. Having<br />

recommended and aligned products to their optimum segments, Geoff set the<br />

knowledge through successful engagements in technology, financial and public sector<br />

markets. More recently, as an IT Project Manager in a large accounting firm, Chris<br />

spearheaded the development and implementation of mobile device applications that<br />

minimized firm costs and increased staff productivity. In addition, Chris gained<br />

significant experience in international business through the successful management of<br />

a global, client-facing, organizational health gap analysis tool that heightened revenue<br />

generating capabilities. Successfully utilizing his sales, marketing and customer<br />

relationship management skills to grow and maintain both a landscaping and a<br />
