Podcasts about Cancer Council Victoria

Todd Harper AM, CEO of Cancer Council Victoria, has held four CEO roles across some of Australia's most respected public health organisations. But his leadership edge doesn't come from always having the answers — it comes from the opposite. In this conversation, Todd shares how embracing uncertainty, seeking unfiltered feedback, and learning to let go of control shaped him into a more effective leader. From leading through the HIV/AIDS epidemic to driving strategic cancer prevention and policy reform, Todd reflects on legacy, vulnerability, and the power of values-led leadership. This episode is a refreshing, deeply human look at what it really means to lead well — especially when the stakes are high, the issues are complex, and the outcomes matter. ----------------------- Learn more and apply for the Influence Mastermind: https://www.bravefeminineleadership.com/influence-mastermind ----------------------- Inside My CEO Calendar: How I Led A Team of 5k+ Without Getting Pulled Back Into the Weeds A behind-the-scenes private podcast for senior female leaders and CEOs who don't need fluff—just sharper thinking, smarter moves, and more time for what matters.

Head of SunSmart at the Cancer Council Victoria, Emma Glassenbury, says Victorians need to be vigilant from the end of August to the end of April, when UV levels typically rise above three.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Dr Kristi Milley and Sophie Chima talk to Kate Broun, Manager - Screening, Early Detection and Immunisation at Cancer Council Victoria about the recent media campaign that was launched in March 2019 and the recent publication Impact of a mass media campaign on participation rates in a National Bowel Cancer Screening Program. This study aimed to compare bowel cancer screening rates prior to, during and after a mass media campaign, and assess how high intensity campaigning in one state compared to a state that received less campaign exposure. An eight-week television-led mass media campaign was launched in selected regions of Australia in mid-2014 to promote the National Bowel Cancer Screening Program (NBCSP), which mails out FOBT kits. The campaign used TV advertising in the entire state of Queensland (QLD) but only some of Western Australia (WA). There were other supportive campaign elements such as print, digital and online advertising. The number of FOBT kits returned increased in QLD during the months of the campaign and up to two months after the broadcast, but not significantly in WA. This study indicates that low levels of participation in the NBCSP could be increased by mass media campaigns, but the overall effect will be dependent on the intensity of the campaign.

All this and more will be answered as Houston hosts his first Podcast and Cheezo backs him up from the Airport AKA a Tin Can. PLEASE DONATE to our Fundraiser for Cancer Council Victoria, we have already raised so much and are incredibly proud to call you our Community. Please, dig deep! https://my-own-way-2016.everydayhero.com/au/doctor-supercoach *Celebrating Michael Barlow's return may or may not be discussed, but you can still cry with joy.

The Doc has been curing and offering advice to patients for a long time, saving team after team, year after year. We've been there through your good trades and your bad ones, when injuries struck and you almost felt like giving up. HOWEVER! The one major thing that the Doc cannot cure, is cancer. With your generosity though, we can help fight it together. We are proud to announce that we will be raising $5,000 for Cancer Council Victoria. Cheezo and Houston discuss this more throughout this weeks segment, so tune in for that and more! - What do we do with the huge forward outs this week? - What strategy do we take when looking at players to upgrade too? - Are there certain rookies on borrowed time?
