Sinopse

At a time of concern about the number of women progressing to the ‘top job’, Anne Ward is a welcome exception. Of the 7 organisations of which she is a director, she chairs the majority of them. Anne is chairman of Qantas Superannuation, one of Australia’s largest corporate superannuation funds which manages over $7 billion of retirement assets for its 33,000 members. She also chairs Colonial First State Investments, which manages over $100 billion of assets on behalf of around 2 million Australian investors. She is the chairman of both Zoos Victoria and The Centre for Investor Education, she is a director of MYOB, the Foundation for Imaging Research, and RMIT University. In this week’s Success Story, Anne shares with Catherine Robson how the most challenging board crisis she’s faced led to a deeper understanding of what it means to lead effectively and why saying no to opportunities could be the best thing for your career.
