LEADERSHIP SERIES INTERVIEWS
Welcome to the first in our series of leadership interviews. We kick off with Georgie Somerset, judged one of the top 100 influential women in Australia a few years ago and a woman who continues to go from strength to strength. Georgie runs a family business and sits on a range of high profile Australian Boards so she has a broad range of experience to draw on. She has also established the Red Earth Community Foundation to build leadership skills within her community.
Click the video below to watch Juliet’s interview with Georgie Somerset to get an insight to Georgie’s experience in Leadership roles and some great tips on how to become a successful leader.
