I’ve been a member of AuSAE since…
A very long time ago…
The most valuable thing about my AuSAE membership is…
Networking – since we are not in direct competition with each other we can share information and contacts openly.
Before I was an association executive I was…
Employed in retail by a national discount chain as a store level merchandise manager.
If I wasn’t an association executive I would be…
Travelling.
The thing that gets me out of bed every morning is…
The challenge of catching up on a lost opportunity after a failed merger attempt with a federally registered counterpart.
My career highlight would have to be…
What, just one!
I love working in this sector because…
Of the opportunity to be involved with an entire industry, from grassroots member issues to industry regulators, politicians, media and public.
The trouble with some associations is…
What trouble? It’s all good! Okay, some association boards think they should be managers as well as directors.
As a manager it’s important to…
Work out what is important and do it, and ensure your organisation is properly capitalised and adequately resourced.
The relationship between CEO and board is…
Meant to be a partnership that is working towards a common goal.
I am inspired by…
Leaders who are successful and manage the work/life balance better than I do.
When I am not working you can find me…
At home with my family.
