Today on the Take on Board podcast, I'm speaking with Wendy McCarthy about her journey to the boardroom. Wendy McCarthy AO – an Australian businesswoman, activist and former university administrator – joined her first board of directors almost 50 years ago.It was 1974. Feminism's second wave was in full swing. Members of the Women's Electoral Lobby, (WEL) were encouraged to join the Family Planning Association of Australia (FPA) to vote for a new board, to drive reform and change, such as accessible contraception. Wendy was WEL's Sydney chapter co-deputy convenor. She joined FPA and was elected to the board. WEL gained control of the association. “To my surprise I was elected, albeit at the bottom of the bottom of the ticket,” she wrote in her 2022 memoir, Don't Be Too Polite, Girls. “It was my first board appointment and I was excited and apprehensive about the task.Then, in 1983, she joined the ABC board. The 50-year-old ABC had just turned into a corporation “to become more innovative and competitive”. The secretary of the Department of Communications called Wendy to ask if she'd be deputy or chairman of the board. She was appointed, without an interview. As said in the Don't Be Too Polite, Girls extract below, her “advocacy had to be for the advancement of women in the corporation”Today Wendy is on the board of For purpose Investment PartnersDhe's previously been on the boards of ABC Circus Oz, IMF Bentham, Goodstart Early Learning and many others – we'll hear more about that today.Wendy is a a feminist activist who believes 50 /50 is a good framework for Board participation and engagement in community life.Resources and LinksWendy on LinkedInDon't Be Too Polite, Girls by Wendy McCarthyUpcoming TOB EventsAll eventsYou might want to:Join the Take on Board Facebook communityJoin the Take on Board LinkedIn communityFollow along on TwitterWork with meJoin the Take on Board: Kickstarter group programJoin the Take on Board: Accelerator group programFind out more about meContact me Hosted on Acast.

Wendy McCarthy is one of Australia's most influential women.  For more than 50 years Wendy's been at the forefront of feminism, corporate and public life in Australia.  Her trailblazing advocacy has truly shaped this country. For example, if your dad was at your birth, you can thank Wendy because back in the 1960's she fought for the rights of fathers to be at their child's birth. She's also fought for equal pay for women, affordable childcare, and access to contraception and abortion law reform.  In fact, in 1972 she famously risked prosecution by taking out a full page ad announcing she'd had an illegal abortion. But Wendy is not just an incredible change maker. She's an educator, author, mother, business owner, board member, university chancellor, the Deputy Chair of the ABC and a wonderful mentor to countless other women.

Feminist, activist and writer Wendy McCarthy reveals in her new memoir, “Don't Be Too Polite, Girls” how to be a strong feminist, a good mother and a good wife  - all at the same time. Here she discusses how choosing the right life partner, her beloved Gordon McCarthy, enabled her to live a stimulating, purposeful life, with a brilliant career spanning the public, private, corporate and not-for-profit sectors. Her advice to women offered key roles? “Say yes and work it out later,” – just as a man would do. Gold.

Across all these endeavours, she has worked for change in education, family planning, human rights, public health, conservation and the Arts to list a few.In this episode you'll hear the formidable Wendy share:How one profound lesson as a young girl has shaped her life How she's learnt to take risks and not be intimidatedHow trying to retire at 60 was a huge mistake, and How Wendy thinks about claiming her space when she walks into a room.Enjoy the stories and wisdom from true pioneer and trailblazer, Wendy McCarthy.
