Shownotes
Today, on the Take on Board Podcast, I’m speaking with Bernadette Northeast about board evaluations.
Bernadette has a long list of boards, and I may not have captured them all. She is on the boards of the Victorian Fisheries Authority, Victorian State Emergency Services and Loved and Shared Incorporated and she’s the managing director of Northeast, Stockdale & Leggo Real Estate Warrnambool.
She was the former chair of Southwest Healthcare and the Women and Southwest Family Violence Partnership and formerly served on the boards of the Australian Institute of Company Directors, Great South Coast committee and Prime Safe. I have no doubt missed others.
Her day job is entirely different. She manages land health and biodiversity at Glenelg Hopkins Catchment Management Authority.
