Glenn Byres
Director - Policy, Advocacy and Stakeholder Engagement
Byron Bay & Brisbane
Glenn has two decades of executive level experience in both the corporate and political sectors, including senior communications roles for two NSW Premiers and a Federal Opposition Leader. He has expertise across strategy, messaging and reputation management.
Glenn is a strong believer in vibrant and functioning democracies, which provide the backbone of effective public policy. He’s also a big fan of the US Civil Rights Movement, because of how it brought together the powers of political, social and civic mobilisation via a message of hope.
When not at work, you’ll either find Glenn in the ocean or deeply immersed in music, despite him lacking a single fingernail of musical ability. And his favourite words to live by are, “change is hard, but always worthwhile.”
