I interviewed Liz for this podcast in September 2019.

Liz is Co-Founder and Former CEO of SafetyWorks Group, one of Australia's foremost providers of safety culture change solutions for performance improvement.

She is also the Deputy Chair of Uniting, and the Chair of the Hunter Region Committee of the AICD.

Liz is an experienced executive and non-executive director, who is determined to improve the lives of others, particularly in the area of safety and wellbeing, and those who are vulnerable in our community.

She is a Graduate of the Australian Institute of Company Directors, previous Chair of Leapfrog Ability, and Board member of St Philips Christian Education Foundation.

In this episode we talk about:

✅ The experience she gained in 20 years of business ownership

✅ Leading safety change, developing a chronic sense of unease and where leaders get it wrong

✅ Why metrics are not useful if they don't drive the behaviours that align to your business strategy and vision, and

✅ How to get on a Board and how to make the most of non-executive positions.

You can reach Liz on LinkedIn and via email.
