As we wrap up this 5-part series on Talent Talk Episode 9, there’s one message I want to leave you with: Allyship is not an initiative. It’s a commitment. It’s not a training you attend once.

One of the standout moments in Episode 9 of Talent Talk was a simple but powerful reflection from our male guest David Hawkins, Chair and Managing Director, BASF Australia and New Zealand.

In Episode 9 of Talent Talk, I sat down with a male senior leader who’s spent the last year doing deep work on his role in gender equity.

In Episode 9 of Talent Talk, I had the opportunity to speak with a male leader who’s been doing the work—reflecting on his own leadership and asking the tough questions about gender equity.

In Episode 9 of Talent Talk, I sat down with David Hawkins, Chair and Managing Director, BASF Australia and New Zealand, a courageous male leader who is using his voice—and his position—to advocate for gender equality in the workplace.

Trust is the currency of leadership—and when it’s lost, everything slows down. In Episode 75 of Talent Talk, I sat down with Victor Morales to explore how leaders can rebuild trust and re-engage stakeholders in moments of tension, change, or disconnection.

Change is never just about new processes or structures—it’s about people.

Leading in global markets is not just about expansion—it’s about understanding nuance, navigating complexity, and respecting difference.

One of the most powerful shifts I’ve seen in leadership over the past few years is this: it’s no longer about having one charismatic leader at the top—it’s about cultivating leadership throughout the organisation.

If there’s one thing leaders can agree on right now, it’s this: the future feels anything but certain.

In today’s fast-evolving world—where AI, hybrid teams, and global complexity are shaping every industry—one quality stands out more than ever

Adaptability has always been a valuable leadership trait. But now, in this AI-driven world, it’s non-negotiable.

As AI continues to shape the workplace, one of the questions I often explore with leaders is: How do we adopt these tools responsibly?

I often get asked by leaders, “Where do I even begin when it comes to AI?” And the answer I always come back to is: start with skills.

As a leadership coach and host of Talent Talk, I’m constantly learning from the people I sit down with—and this episode was no exception.
