Description

In this episode of the Marketing 4 Business Podcast, Scott is joined by Glenn Wilson, former New Zealand Davis Cup tennis captain and now General Manager at Custom Pack. Glenn’s story covers a unique path from dairy farming to the world stage of tennis, and now to running a fast-evolving family business in the packaging industry.

They dig into the real mindset shifts that drive high performance – in sport and business – and what it takes to lead through change. Glenn shares lessons from tough mentors, building resilience, and why one-on-one leadership still matters most. You’ll hear how Custom Pack has survived and thrived through market shifts, technology upgrades, supply chain shocks, and a constantly changing team. Most of all, Glenn opens up about the habits, self-talk, and practical strategies that have helped him – and his business – adapt, innovate, and keep moving forward.
