He served as the first chairman of New Zealand Steel Ltd. In 1960, he established the Woolf Fisher Trust to provide funding that maintained the salaries of post-primary schoolteachers and principals while sending them overseas to further their education. Fisher also supported the Outward Bound Trust of New Zealand and in 1961 became its first president.Fisher was knighted in 1964 for his contribution to New Zealand's economy and for his philanthropic works. He died in 1975 while at his vacation home on the lake at Rotorua. Following its formation, in 1994 Woolf Fisher was inducted in the New Zealand Business Hall of Fame.[1]".
