Episode 7 - Shownotes

In this episode of YS Up Governance and Boards Podcast, 3YS Owls Governance Consultants, Ainslie Cunningham and Deb Anderson interview Anne Parkin, an executive director of Queensland Treasury Corporation with over 25 years board experience and global banking, securities trading and superannuation experience. We discussed Anne’s journey and some of the challenges and celebrations that have led her to become an International industry leader in operational management of high-level financial transactions in a highly regulated multi-jurisdictional industry.

I joined QTC about four years ago, and they were just starting down a major project. They've basically changed all their systems, their processes, their operating structure, their change management, their people management, they've won awards in HR magazines. They get their surveys of staff and feedback are phenomenal. They kept them very well informed. They gave a lot of training and talked about what needed to be done. They celebrated all the successes and they just went ahead, and it's a very, very good culture. It's comes down to obviously the CEO and his senior people around him.
