Susan is an environmental scientist and planner with experience in developing and implementing environmental systems and management plans, environmental risk assessments, sustainability assessments, audits, management and large scale strategic planning at corporate level
- How am I considering the environment? Mind Your Own Business by Vander Vagh, Angus Ogilvie and Chris Wells, MYOB NZ
