In this thought-provoking episode of Humanising Data, Erin Evans sits down with Aleena Delore, Head of Data Management at Regional Australia Bank (RAB), to explore one of the most urgent issues shaping the future of data: how we rebuild trust in an age of digital acceleration.

Aleena offers a grounded, human-centred view on governance, risk, and the cultural shifts needed to make data work with — not against — the people it serves. Her insights reveal what happens when ethical leadership goes beyond policy and becomes a practice embedded in everyday decisions. The conversation opens up the nuances of accountability, the weight of reputational risk, and the role of integrity when navigating complex transformations. There’s power in how she frames risk, not as a barrier to progress, but as a necessary lens through which trust can be rebuilt and confidence earned.

This episode invites reflection and challenges listeners to rethink how data, trust, and leadership truly intersect. Listen now!

In the final episode of Season 3 of Humanising Data, our founder Erin Evans sits down with Andrew Dome, Chief Information Officer at Uniting, whose career spans global program delivery, digital innovation, and now the stewardship of one of Australia’s most forward-thinking AI transformations in aged care.

Andrew reflects on his unconventional journey from sales to self-taught technologist in London, and how those experiences shaped his people-first approach to AI. He discusses Uniting’s evolution from a simple policies-and-procedures search tool to Buddy, a digital front door that streamlines daily tasks for frontline workers, and Genie, an agentic AI capable of supporting customers through natural, human-like conversations.

He also delves into Uniting’s shift from reactive fall detection to proactive prevention through data, the frameworks and governance needed to build trust, and why his guiding focus for the year ahead is creating AI that feels “intuitive and easy” for every employee, including the 7,500 frontline staff set to use these tools.

Blending practical insights with genuine purpose, Andrew invites us to rethink what ethical, human-centred AI looks like inside a sector facing immense demand. This episode offers leaders a clear and inspiring look at how AI can reduce friction, return time to workers, and ultimately elevate the quality of care.

A fitting finale to wrap up Season 3, listen now for a powerful exploration of how AI, when done right, can truly humanise care.
