Shownotes
Today on the Take on Board podcast, I’m speaking with Jaala Pulford about setting up a new statutory authority, scale an organisation or scope, and having to manage staffing changes quickly.
Jaala chairs MTP Connect and the Children’s Cancer Foundation. She’s a non-executive director with several growth stage companies and the Tech Council of Australia. A member of parliament from 2006 to 2022, Jaala was Victoria’s first female agricultural minister. Between 2014 and 2022, she held ministerial portfolios including roads, employment, innovation, and fishing.
Jaala lives in Ballarat. She loves scuba diving. She totally loves scuba diving. There’s photos of it everywhere. Uh, she loves travel and having the time to read.
