The Story
At thirteen, a teacher told her she wasn't smart enough to be anything or do anything.
She filed it under: watch me.
She became a research scientist working on cancer and HIV gene therapy. A journalist who broke Federal Budget stories ahead of the mainstream press. A technology executive who identified digital health as a market before the category existed - a strategic call that led to her organisations sales team winning the digital component of Australia's first digital hospital, on a 35-year contract.
She became an executive specialising in working with government to drive outcomes- and changing legislation. An Aide to one of Australia's most respected corporate leaders. An executive who led 1800RESPECT through a challenging period and turned it around. A board director. A telecommunication executive. Now Chief of Impact and Innovation at a a leading Not-for- Profit, and the author of a forthcoming book on leadership and organisational culture.
Her mother was the first woman to finish the Bathurst 500. Her father brought strangers home from the shops for Christmas dinner. She grew up in a house that understood, without ever saying it directly, that how you respond to the hard thing is the whole story.
That is what she speaks about. That is what she writes. That is what she brings into every room.
