Welcome to the fifth interview in the 6-part CEO Series Visionary Voices, where I explore the CEO Mindset and path to success. This episode features Lisa Harrison, CEO of Suncorp Consumer Insurance, whose journey from the suburbs of Sydney to leading a major financial organization is both inspiring and refreshingly down-to-earth. Lisa opens up about the deep connection she feels to her organization’s purpose, and her approach to creating clarity and alignment with her team to drive impactful results. Her stories remind us of the power of resilience and learning from everyday moments, like early lessons from childhood that shaped her CEO mindset. Together, we explore the challenges of receiving positive feedback and how leaning into strengths—not just areas for improvement—can unlock growth. This is an honest and insightful conversation packed with takeaways for leaders at any stage. Enjoy!

Catherine Fox is an innate Optimist who thinks we can change. In her own words she is at a stage in life where she can say and do things that women in mid-career can’t. She makes no bones that we are far from an equal playing field. Join Catherine and I as we discuss the why that drives her, the hypocrisy that drives women into the ground, tokenism and how to get beyond box ticking. Catherine shares that in her experience the male leaders who really listen to the females in their organisation are often utterly shocked at their experience of working in the same organisation. Stop Fixing Women is one of five books that Catherine has authored. With three decades as a journalist and advocate, Catherine is one of Australia’s leading experts on leadership, the future of workplaces and the status of women. Her career has included interviewing management gurus, Nobel Prize winners and international CEOs. She has written five books, won a Walkley Award, presented at conferences and appeared in the media around Australia and internationally. I consider myself incredibly lucky to have had this conversation.

Sometimes it is as easy as making the decision. Peter Tonagh shares a story of a startup CEO who opted to keep roles vacant until he found the right female to keep their team balanced. This was just the beginning. Join Peter and I as we discuss dreams of being a fighter pilot, his five basic leadership principles, the challenge of providing tough feedback and why he doesn't believe you should mentor males and females the same way. He was formerly Chief Executive Officer of Foxtel, NewsCorp and REA and Partner of The Boston Consulting Group. Today Peter is a non-executive Chairman of ASX-listed companies, Deputy Chairman of the ABC and Chairman of Bus Stop Films - a not for profit organisation supporting inclusion in the film and television industry. Peter is a terrific supporter of female talent and I thoroughly enjoyed this thoughtful conversation.

One of the hallmarks of the leaders I spend time with, leaders who are driving real change, is incredible generosity. Liz Broderick stands out. Liz puts herself at considerable risk as a Special Rapporteur and Independent Expert of the United Nations Working Group on Discrimination against Women and Girls. Together we discuss that courage is a muscle, that shining a spotlight on problems is one of the steps to finding a solution and the truly fearful moments where Liz has asked herself if she is happy to continue. Liz almost needs no introduction for anyone in the Australian corporate landscape. She was Australia’s longest standing Sex Discrimination Commissioner (2007 - 2015) and has been instrumental in the development and implementation of a gender equality blueprint for Australia. She is the Founder and Convenor of the Champions of Change Coalition (formerly Male Champions of Change) a globally recognised, disruptive strategy for achieving gender equality. Liz is a Board member of the International Service for Human Rights and a member of the Global Institute for Women’s Leadership Advisory Council, Kings College London. Humble and passionate with a wonderful sense of compassion. Make time to deeply absorb her words.

Mark McGinley was nominated as a CEO Magazine ‘CEO of the year’ 2021. He will humbly tell you he didn’t win. Join Mark and I as we discuss how he delivered game changing results by elevating female leaders in his business. For him it was simply the fair and smart thing to do. Mark grew up in Belfast where everyone he knew had small businesses. It was in this landscape in the 80s that he was exposed to bomb threats while supporting his father’s small business. It toughened him up for a long and successful corporate career. A career that saw him transition from owning his own businesses to becoming a successful corporate CEO with market leading Great Place to Work results and a business ranked as Number 1 in its category. It also saw him relocate to Australia and realise a long held dream - I will leave that secret for the podcast. Mark McGinley is the sort of leader you can imagine working with. Driven to create a culture of belonging he has consistently focused on leading the individual and ensuring people get opportunities. Mark was CEO of Couriers Please from 2014 - 2021. Enjoy listening to a thoughtful, inclusive leader.

Div Pillay is an inspirational leader. Growing up under apartheid she watched her adventurous parents navigate barriers and limitations and at six months pregnant when she migrated to “the lucky country” she found out that the Australia people see from afar is not as lucky as she imagined. Together we discuss building a life led by social impact, being carjacked at knifepoint and leaning in to solve the problem rather than running away. Div Pillay leads MindTribes and social enterprise Culturally Diverse Women (CDW). She is also the Chair of the D&I Committee at the American Chamber of Commerce, Australia and is a Board Director at VicHealth. Div’s impact is well recognised - she is one of the 100 women of influence, named by the Australian Financial Review in 2018 and in 2021 she was named one of two Australians in a Global List of 25 Influential leaders, by AACSB, the world’s largest business education alliance. Highly intelligent, direct and authentic, all the qualities we love in a Brave Feminine Leader. Listen to this.

Look really hard, I am still convinced you won’t find someone as genuinely supportive of women everywhere as Jules. She is a connector. A supporter. She gets on with it and makes things happen. Her mission is to make women more visible. Jules Brookes is the founder of Handle Your Own PR and the founder of the She’s The Boss community that has grown widely since the pandemic. Jules has interviewed over 200 successful female entrepreneurs via her podcast She’s The Boss Chats. Join Jules and I as we discuss the three things that surprise her about her conversations with successful females, how “Con The Fruiterer” coming to the wrong conclusion about her provided a big career break and how women over 50 feature in less than 4% of media worldwide.

Welcome to a special 5-part series "Thriving with ADHD: Stories of Female Leaders". This week we are joined by Dr. Oli Sophie Meredith (she/they). Oli is an autistic and ADHD non-binary woman originally from England. Oli is public health academic at Charles Sturt University, a reiki master, poet and yogi. Oli is currently leading a project “Hiding or Thriving: The Lived Experiences and Coping Strategies of Women and Gender Diverse people with ADHD. We discuss world travels from Cambodia to Australia, how her own chronic illness changed the course of her life and instilled a deep passion for self-care. This is a wonderful discussion about the exhaustion of trying to follow a neurotypical path, about leadership and the joy of taking the mask off.

Together Bob Rae and I discuss the lessons he absorbed from his mother as the corporate executive - painting an exciting vision far from his coal mining hometown. The hard work and customer ethics from his entrepreneurial father and the benefit of his psychology degree in understanding and leading people. Bob moved often to chase growth and stretch himself to the edge of his capabilities, his advice in this regard is a must listen. We also discuss the power of having and being a good sponsor. Listen to why he has executives who have followed him from company to company. With over 30 years of success in technology, telecommunications and services business, Bob Rae is the CEO and President of ClearCaptions, a US based phone captioning company that today is a nationwide company in the US serving hundreds of thousands of hard-of-hearing consumers. Bob and I were lucky to meet on life’s journey, when he was a highly valued client of mine years ago. I thank him for adding his voice to this conversation.

Self-awareness and asking for feedback is critical for any leader. So is listening and changing. Join Michelle Winzer and I as we discuss how she let go of perfectionism, viewed her “selfish” decision to undertake an MBA as the best investment she ever made and her way of tackling the inner critic who sits on her shoulder.

The advice of a good friend is something we all need to hear sometimes. Luckily for Richmond Football Club, Peggy O'Neal listened and stepped fully into the role of President. Join Peggy and I as we discuss the critical role sport plays in lifting respect for women, gut feel, being perceived as “too soft”, deep community engagement and stepping away from an established & successful career when the learning stops. Peggy is such a thoughtful and generous person who is now reinventing herself for the next decade and is stepping into another new arena - education as the Chancellor for RMIT University. Make time for this conversation. There honestly is something in here that will resonate with everyone.

Join Jo and I as we discuss what she believes is the greatest unlocker to an exciting life and happiness, why starting out with no network is ok, the leadership book she reads every year and why an incredible female leader was the drawcard for her to choose L’Oreal to start her career. Jo Horgan, MECCA Brands Founder and Co-CEO opened her first Mecca Cosmetica store in the Melbourne suburb of South Yarra in 1997. 25 years later, MECCA Brands has more than 4,000 team members and over 100 stores in Australia and New Zealand.

Supporting gender diversity is the fair thing to do. Join Peter and I as we discuss his leadership lessons, his reflections on the mistakes he made, his decision to share financial success across the whole organisation. He has dealt with some serious business issues in his time in the Insurance industry which isolated him from his senior leadership team. It was in these moments that he realised how truly resilient individuals can be when they need to step up. Peter Harmer was formerly Chief Executive Officer of Insurance Australia Group (IAG), CGU Insurance, Aon Limited UK, Aon Risk Services Australia Pacific and Aon Re Australia and has successfully led business growth agendas, major acquisitions and industry roll-ups. Today he is a non-executive director for Commonwealth Bank of Australia, nib holdings limited, nib health funds, AUB Group Limited, Lawcover Limited and an Advisory Board member for Bain & Company. It was such a joy to interview Peter. Our beliefs on engaging people and building cultures align very strongly. Join us.

One curious question led to a worldwide journey to meet every living female president and prime minister. It then led to the creation in 1996 of the Council of Women World Leaders. Laura is the Secretary General of the Council and a Former Managing Director & Senior Advisor, Goldman Sachs & Co. She is Laura is the author of four books: The Loudest Duck - Moving Beyond Diversity, The Elephant and the Mouse, Women World Leaders and Serving Them Right. The messages in Laura’s latest book, The Elephant and the Mouse, on the subtle gates that make progress harder for non-dominant groups should be required reading. As should be listening to our conversation - it is still resonating with me long after we spoke.

Welcome to a special 5-part series "Thriving with ADHD: Stories of Female Leaders". Next up in our series we are joined by Rebecca McLinden (Manager Positive Behaviour Support). Bec has been supporting children with ADHD and Autism since she was 15, yet never recognised it in herself. Together we talk about the impact of COVID and how the removal of her support network meant it wasn’t possible to “mask” anymore. This is an authentic conversation where we talk about sharing the diagnosis with your leader, about coming to terms with the “blessing and curse”. I loved it and Bec’s tips on gamifying aspects of your life are amazing.

I am glad I met Alister Dias, Vice-President, Google Cloud Australia and New Zealand. Alister shares his own story for the first time in this conversation. It is not the story of typical privilege we hear from so many leaders who dominate our corporate landscape. It is a story of perseverance and optimism, a story of racism, loss and hard work. Make time for this conversation.

Traditionally many females, including so many of the incredible female executives I have interviewed, operate on the belief that if I work hard, put my head down and excel, then I will be offered a promotion or a pay rise. That’s an old story. You can create your own opportunities. Dr. Michelle Perugini is inspirational. Fascinated by the human body from a young age she was into STEM from day one. Together we discuss the courage to step away from a successful career, the importance of getting out of your domain of expertise to access new ideas and building two businesses whilst bringing up your family “your way”.

Georgie is a self-professed tech geek in sneakers and her tombstone will say “she died trying”. There is so much passion and energy to absorb from this conversation.
