Check out how far Bribie Island has come from a mere 700 residents with roughly 80 telephones, to what we call now ‘living the dream’.

Amazing to imagine dialing up a local business on the telephone with just two digits! Thanks to Barry Clark, Founder of Bribie Island Historical Society for digging up these beauties!

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from everyone at the BIS! Stay safe this festive season.

A highly successful sales and leadership career working in a number of different and very competitive industries. Engaging with decision makers at all levels in business and government. Three decades employed by corporations, SME businesses in senior roles and almost twelve years operating as a freelance contractor has equipped me well for all aspects of business. Whether leading and mentoring sales teams, or in a direct sales role I enjoy the challenge to meet and exceed expectations. Making a real and tangible difference in either a team environment or as an individual is an important personal goal I have consistently achieved throughout my career. In all of my business and personal dealings over the years there is one issue that stands out above all others - communication. Excellent communication skills creates trust, helps with mutually beneficial outcomes and above all cements long lasting positive relationships. I strive everyday to communicate effectively with the people I encounter.
