Chris Carroll
Responsible for the Eventful Group’s strategy and development, Chris’s mantra is “that people may forget what you said, people may forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel”.
He is particularly passionate about the preservation of the Eventful Group's special culture and the role culture plays in competitive advantage.
Chris has a BA Hons (Stellenbosch University) and a Diploma in Business Strategy (AIM and Macquarie University). He has worked in several small and midsize companies in operational, management and advisory roles. Joining Eventful in 1996 - shortly after it was founded - he has led and driven the successful evolution of The Eventful Group through organic growth, joint ventures, acquisitions and a merger.
Chris loves: interesting people and inspiring stories; old countries and cultures; 70’s folk and rock music; all things oceans and rivers; and personal development and yoga.
He lives close to the beach with his wife and two beautiful children.
