ADVISORY BOARD MEMBER

Greg Harrison

I really enjoy getting to know about my customer’s businesses – what motivates and drives them, how they define success and what is of value to them. Only when you understand this can you truly align and support their aspirations.

Core skills

Sales and marketing, sales operations, direct and indirect sales strategies, general management.

Greg has enjoyed a highly successful career spanning over 45 years in the technology and services sector, holding roles in start-up advisory, operational and general management, sales and sales management, alliances management and consulting. Adaptable and curious by nature, Greg has considerable expertise within growth-oriented environments. 

Driven by a desire to invest in the skills and aspirations of others, Greg focuses pragmatically on outcomes – developing team capability, designing and improving sales and business operations, building effective partnerships and lifting the quality and scope of client deliverables.  

Greg has held senior positions in sales operations management, operational and general management, CEO and company director roles across multiple geographies for iconic organisations such as Xero, Microsoft, IBM, Sun Microsystems, NZ Trade and Enterprise, Dell and World Vision. He also ran his own cloud consulting and implementation business for a number of years. 

Ideally suited to organisations seeking growth, Greg was on the leadership team of Xero in Australia as it grew from 50 to over 200 staff during his tenure. A certified coach, he is best summarised as inherently curious, collaborative and highly effective ‘engine builder’. 

Outside his mahi at Height, Greg loves to go fishing, and to spend time with his grandchildren.
