In this episode of the 20 Years of Women on Boards – Inspire | Influence | Impact series, WOB co-founder and CEO Claire Braund OAM speaks with Amanda Heyworth FAICD about building a board career while balancing executive leadership, family life and continuous professional growth. Amand is a professional company director with governance experience spanning startups to ASX 200 companies across technology, finance, property, innovation and venture capital. Amanda discusses the realities of building a board portfolio over time, including reducing executive commitments gradually while expanding her governance career. She also speaks candidly about the importance of finding boards where there is an "Amanda-sized hole" — a role where her skills, experience and perspective can genuinely add value. Amanda shares practical advice for aspiring directors, emphasising the value of executive experience, governance education and strategic not-for-profit board roles that provide exposure to experienced directors and boardroom dynamics. She describes the Women on Boards community as instrumental in legitimising board careers for women and creating visibility through role models, mentoring and board opportunities. She also shares insights into the evolution of Women on Boards, the changing expectations placed on directors, and why capability, diversity and lifelong learning remain critical to the future of governance. Asked to summarise her 20-year journey in three words, Amanda's answer perfectly captures the spirit of the episode: "curiosity, growth and contribution".

As part of the 20 Years of Women on Boards – Inspire | Influence | Impact vodcast series, WOB CEO and co-founder Claire Braund OAM speaks with governance expert Julie Garland McLellan about board careers, governance and the changing role of women in the boardroom over the past two decades. A non-executive director, educator, author and producer and narrator of the Directors Dilemma newsletter, Julie reflects on a career spanning more than 27 years across boards, governance education and consulting. She shares lessons from board turnarounds; governance failures and the increasing expectations placed on directors today. Julie also reflects on the early days of Women on Boards and the reaction when WOB first launched. At the time, she was serving on the council of the Australian Institute of Company Directors (AICD) and recalls the "consternation" surrounding an organisation focused specifically on supporting women into boards, particularly during debates around quotas and targets. She notes how much the governance landscape has changed since then. In the early days, governance events often had only a handful of women in attendance. Today, many are approaching gender parity -something Julie believes WOB has helped normalise over the past 20 years. The episode also explores the importance of continuous learning, strong networks and understanding the practical realities of being a director, with Julie encouraging aspiring directors to gain hands-on board experience and continue building their governance knowledge throughout their career.

Der FC St. Pauli empfängt den VfL Wolfsburg zum Endspiel am letzten Spieltag. Ein Podcast über Fehlentscheidungen, Burgzinnen und blanke Nerven.
In this very special episode of the 20 Years of Women on Boards podcast series, Claire Braund sits down with Ruth Medd, the original architect behind the Women on Boards idea and co-founder of WOB, a conversation that truly reflects Inspire, Influence and Impact in action. This episode offers a rare and insightful reflection on how one idea, sparked in the early 2000s, grew into a national movement that has shaped the board landscape in Australia. From the earliest conversations following the Sydney Olympics to the formal launch of Women on Boards in 2006, Ruth's vision and persistence helped inspire a generation of women to consider the boardroom as a pathway. In a candid and often humorous discussion, Ruth shares the thinking behind some of WOB's most defining initiatives, including the creation of the Vacancy Board, the push for women into paid board roles, and the role of data and advocacy in influencing real change across organisations and sectors. She reflects on the early days of challenging boardroom norms, including turning up at AGMs to ask difficult questions, and how these actions helped influence greater awareness and accountability at the highest levels. The episode also captures the unique partnership between Ruth and Claire, whose combined efforts over nearly two decades created lasting impact, opening doors, creating access and supporting women to step into board roles with confidence. As WOB celebrates 20 years, this episode is both a tribute and a powerful reminder of how one idea can inspire change, influence systems and deliver meaningful impact. >> Learn more www.womenonboards.net

Effective governance is shaped as much by judgement, relationships and culture as it is by experience. That observation is from Cheryl Hayman, whose two-decade board career reflects the evolution of modern governance. Cheryl is an experienced Non-Executive Director and Remuneration and Nomination Committee Chair. She has held many roles, including as one of the first independent NEDs of Women on Boards. Cheryl's journey highlights the value of being intentional. She found that by clearly articulating her strengths, maintaining a visible professional presence and investing in relationships, opportunities followed. Inside the boardroom, her insight is direct. Frameworks matter, she says, but it is the quality of dialogue, trust and willingness to challenge that define outcomes. More about Cheryl Hayman on LinkedIn Cheryl was one of WOB's early non-executive directors, serving on the WOB board from 2016 – 2024. Her current board roles include: Executive Director, Chief Executive Women Non Executive Director; Chair, Remuneration & Nomination; Member, Audit & Risk Committee ASX:AIM Non Executive Director, Guide Dogs NSW/ACT Council Member 4 meetings per year, HCF Australia Women on Boardshttps://www.womenonboards.net/ LinkedInlinkedin.com/company/women-on-boards
