GLENN NILSSON

Q: What or who has been a source of inspiration for you during your career?

Glenn Nilsson: “There are so many good leaders I have looked up to during my career, everything from teachers and family members to military commanders’ supervisors and business leaders.

“Back in 2005 I reported to a terminal manager Steven Jansen from South Africa. He showed me the true meaning of taking responsibility, and how to really own a task, assignment or position. I am indebted to him and I have let him know as well. It developed and diversified my leadership in a big way.

“I have always liked adventure and to broaden my horizons, I guess curiosity in people and processes are an inspirational factor.

“Another definite driver for me is to develop people and build strong teams that have the confidence to develop their own culture and to take decisions independently.”
