Shownotes
Today on the Take on Board podcast, I’m speaking with Ari Magalhaes about business turnarounds.
Ari is on the boards of Palliative Care Tasmania, serves as Deputy Chair of Women’s Health Tasmania, and is part of the Community Advisory Committee of Red Nose Australia. Ari is a global economist, non-executive director, and board advisor with a track record helping ASX private and purpose-led organisations navigate disruption and deliver measurable value.
She’s driven over $110 million in outcomes, a five to 10% profit uplift across sectors such as energy, health, government, and aged care. Ari helps boards and senior leadership turn complexity into clarity, whether managing regulatory change, financial pressure, emerging technologies (like AI) or internal misalignments.
She designs decision systems that make tough trade-offs visible, oversight effective, and strategy executable. She’ll tell you what’s ahead, show you the red pill or the blue pill, and help you choose the best possible next step.
