For seven years, I have worked with the founding Directors, Brad Maiden and Bosco Tan. This has included developing principles for the culture of the company, and conversations regarding team communication. Recent projects of Saber include participation in the refurbishment of the Concert Hall at Sydney Opera House and the ITCC Digital City in Riyadh.

GPex

GPex provides training programs for South Australian GPs. I have been the Executive Coach with CEO, Stephanie Clota, for over six years. This included a period of a challenging merger and the establishment of the CEO’s relationship with a new Chair and Board.

Australian String Quartet (ASQ)

I’m proud to lead this eminent national organisation, which I joined as Chair in January 2022. Collaborating with the Board and team of 10, I use my strategy and philanthropy experience to co-lead the Fit for Forty planning process towards ASQ’s 2025 Ruby Jubilee Anniversary.

Our Community Four-Day Work Week

As a member of the National Advisory Council for Our Community, I’m working directly with the Managing Director, Denis Moriarty, to help guide the cultural elements of the organisation’s transition to a Four-Day Work Week.

Christina Boughen OAM Fellowship

My family and I have established this annual Fellowship Bursary for a person to research the impact of my mother’s artistic practice. The State Library of Queensland (SLQ) has taken the Boughen archives of my father, Robert, and mother, Christina, as a permanent collection that reflects the cultural life and practice of two successful musicians in the 20 th century. Forty-eight boxes of their archives were donated.

Since Professor Liz Harry became the leader of the ithree institute at University of Technology Sydney (UTS) in 2016, I worked with Professor Harry and her team on the institute’s strategy agenda and leadership development until 2019.

During 2017, I worked with the Institute for Sustainable Futures team to consider various future issues, and in particular, the Institute's Deputy Director, Distinguished Professor Cynthia Mitchell.

Four Winds Bermagui

As Chair and pro bono CEO of Four Winds Bermagui, I led a national transformative project in both concept and building the future, spanning 10 years.  At the end of 2016 I stepped down from these roles and was appointed Inaugural Life Ambassador of Four Winds. 

Sydney Opera House

I was brought in by Chief Executive Officer, Louise Herron, to work with the Theatre and Events Director, David Claringbold, and his team.

Ecos Corporation and Greenpeace Japan

Including my Masters of Anthropology on the cultural tension and strategic demands of Greenpeace Japan with the international organisation.

BHP Billiton

In the early 1990’s, bringing together environmental groups with the corporate sector was pioneering work. I was involved in the establishment of the Forum for Corporate Responsibility - the start of leaders from both sectors valuing the power of dialogue and accountability.
