He was instrumental in the establishment of the Canterbury Innovation Incubator and Christchurch's Recovered Materials Foundation, taking the project from concept to being its founding CEO.

Piet has developed a unique training style that combines underlying theory, practical examples and case studies into an integrated programme.

Participants therefore gain a thinking framework that can be readily remembered and applied over a wide spectrum in the workplace.
