S3E9 – Former Mirvac CEO Susan Lloyd-Hurwitz on Australia's housing challengers, gender diversity and transitioning to the boardroom

Saison 3 · Épisode 9

lundi 2 février 2026 • Durée 41:01

Susan Lloyd-Hurwitz reflects on a career shaped by unexpected turns, major leadership challenges and a decade transforming Mirvac as CEO - and how those experiences now inform her work in the boardroom.

In this conversation, Susan discusses the mindset shift from executive to non-executive roles, the discipline of governing without managing, and what effective boards get right in uncertain times. She explores the balance between being supportive and challenging, the central role of the chair, and why CEO succession is the most important decision a board makes.

Susan also shares insights from her work on housing affordability, the realities of leading through complex, politically charged issues, and how boards should think about ESG, diversity and AI in a rapidly shifting global environment.

Key Takeaways:

· Board effectiveness — creating the right balance between being supportive and constructively challenging management.

· Time and focus in the boardroom — avoiding over-indexing on compliance at the expense of strategy, culture and long-term value.

· CEO succession — why pipeline development, transparency and early planning matter more than last-minute decisions.

· Navigating ESG and geopolitics — boards operating amid shifting expectations on climate, diversity and shareholder primacy.

· AI as a governance tool — using AI to sharpen questions and insight, without outsourcing judgement.

· Housing affordability — supply-side reform, productivity, planning and the long game required for meaningful change.

· Gender diversity and talent pipelines — where progress has been made, where blockages persist, and the board's role in calling out bias.

S3E8 - Nothing About Us Without Us: Alastair McEwin on Disability, Leadership and the Boardroom

Saison 3 · Épisode 8

dimanche 25 janvier 2026 • Durée 39:15

Alastair McEwin has spent his career pushing for a more inclusive Australia — as a lawyer, board director, Disability Discrimination Commissioner and a commissioner on the Disability Royal Commission. In this conversation, he reflects on what drew him to disability advocacy, what he learned starting out on boards in his twenties, and why great governance is a team sport.

Alastair unpacks why representation at the top still lags, how boards can move beyond tokenism, and the practical changes that make boardrooms genuinely accessible. He also shares the Royal Commission's central message: Australia is failing people with disability in mainstream settings — and why lasting reform requires leaders to change systems, culture and expectations, not just policies.

Key Takeaways:

• Early board experience: purpose, patience, and learning the room
• What makes a good chair: relationships, trust, and drawing out every voice
• "Nothing about us without us": representation, accessibility, and culture
• Practical steps for boards: ask, don't assume; provide supports; build capability
• The Royal Commission's core finding: mainstream systems are failing people with disability

S3E4 – Tim Trumper: Building AI-ready boards, chair succession done right, and leading through volatility

Saison 3 · Épisode 4

lundi 1 décembre 2025 • Durée 35:34

Former NRMA Chair Tim Trumper joins Boardroom Confidential to talk about AI in the boardroom, data-led transformations, and the craft of modern chairing. Drawing on his book AI: Game On, Tim explores one of the central governance questions of our time — "who or what decides?" — and how directors can set guardrails that protect customers while still unleashing innovation.

Tim shares practical playbooks from the NRMA's reinvention journey, why whole-of-board learning beats delegating AI to a single expert, and how great chairs keep the "silent voice of the customer" present in every discussion. Plus: chair succession that actually works, and leading through an era where volatility is the constant.

Key Themes:

· AI in the boardroom — deciding who or what decides, setting boundaries, and avoiding inaction

· Guardrails without brake lights — a "data/AI Hippocratic oath" to do no harm while innovating

· Leaders must use the tools — boards should get hands-on with AI, not delegate it to one expert

· Customer-first data — using insight to solve problems in real time and define "what good looks like"

· Chair craft — curiosity, empathy, and the "silent voice of the customer" in every meeting

· Chair succession — start early, plan for fit not just skills, and communicate openly

· Boards in a VUCA world — adapt fast, think creatively, and stay flexible amid uncertainty
