The ability and opportunity to make contributions that bring value to the boardroom require Non Executive Directors to tap into their authenticity.

In this episode, we are joined by Lisa Chung AM, who has served as Non Executive Director for Australian Unity Limited, AV Jennings Limited, Warren and Mahoney, the Committee for Sydney, the Sydney Community Foundation, and Artspace/Visual Arts Centre Limited, as well as Chair of The Front Project and a Trustee of the Foundation of the Art Gallery of NSW. She has since taken on the role of Chair at Australian Unity.

When board members stay true to themselves, they attract the right people and opportunities and can distinguish how their skills and interests can best support the organisation's success.
This episode is for you if you're a Non Executive Director or aspiring to be one, looking to make a meaningful contribution to your organization. Lisa's insights offer valuable advice on building trust, leveraging diversity, and tapping into one's authenticity to impact the boardroom positively.
