April 3, 2023
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 of Non Executive Director Insider Insights, we’re joined by Lisa Chung AM who shares her thoughts on what she describes as the privilege of serving others through the boardroom. She discusses her ideas on the crucial role of living authentically. At the time of this recording, Lisa was Non Executive Director of Australian Unity Limited, AV Jennings Limited, Warren and Mahoney, the Committee for Sydney, the Sydney Community Foundation and Artspace/Visual Arts Centre Limited, Chair of The Front Project and a Trustee of the Foundation of the Art Gallery of NSW. She has since taken the role of Chair at Australian Unity. The success of the business is highly dependent on what the board can achieve and each member has an important role to play. They need to be clear on who they really are, the contributions they can make, and the value they bring to the table. Being authentic is the starting point for most people - it resonates and attracts the right people into your network and strengthens relationships in the boardroom.
