Bringing Biggs to the party an inspired move
Bringing Biggs to the party an inspired move

(sticK - 29 October 2014 ) The appointment of Peter Biggs as inaugural chairman of the new Wellington Regional Economic Development Agency, is an inspired bargain.
I briefly dealt with 'Biggsy' as he is commonly known, in a former life.
My observation is that he's great at doing deals and making things happen.
That, in Wellington's case as all and sundry circle but never get any traction around the idea that 'we need to do something', is why he will be great in this position.
