An avid sportsman, one of New Zealand's leading rugby referees, writer, motivator, traveller, youth Advisor, champion of free enterprise and community volunteer work, Bill Potter will share his ideas on how we can turn the tide against the gloomy predictions for our economy and way of life. His lively presentations have a reputation for creating "you-could-hear-a-pin-drop" audiences. His address is a must if you are serious about providing the best service for your customers.

His new book titled "Mind Your Own Damn Business" has been described as "New Zealand's Own Chicken Soup for the Soul".
