In this episode of the Jane Anderson Show, I'm so thrilled to interview an amazing lady, Mel Kettle. Mel Kettle is an internationally recognised expert in fully connected leadership and communication.



Mel is a trusted mentor to executives and leaders and a highly sought-after speaker and trainer. Her clients include leaders, teams and organisations that want to achieve real connection and sustained engagement.



At the heart of everything Mel does is a commitment to self-leadership. She has an over-arching belief that we need to lead ourselves first before we can lead others. This view came after she survived the debilitating effects of work-related loneliness, stress and burnout in her late 20s, and was reinforced when she had a life-threatening melanoma in her early-40s. 



Mel also brings the unique educational combination of a Master of Business (Marketing) and a Master of Public Health, making her a valuable asset to clients including IRESS, Toll, Queensland Country Bank, ANZ, Westpac, the Local Government Association of Qld, Pharmacy Guild of Australia, IHC New Zealand, Arup and numerous universities and government agencies.



Mel's sub-speciality is helping women and organisations better understand the impact of menopause in the workplace. She has been a frequent podcast and radio guest talking about her experience and how organisations can better support menopausal women at work. 



Mel has twice (2022 and 2023) been recognised by leadersHum as one of the Top 200

Biggest Voices in Leadership, one of only seven Australians on the list.



Mel is the host of the podcast This Connected Life and the author of two books, the best-selling Fully Connected and The Social Association. 



In her spare time, Mel loves to cook, go to the beach, dance around the house and read crime thrillers.

Episode 83 - Leadership Communication Specialist, Speaker, Author, Coach, and Mentor, Mel Kettle

In this episode of our podcast, I am beyond excited to welcome Jeanette Cremor, a true trailblazer whose remarkable journey from the serene plains of country Queensland to the dynamic corridors of government is nothing short of inspiring.
Jeanette's story is a shining example of resilience, determination, and an unwavering commitment to excellence. Growing up on a farm where hard work was a daily routine, she learned the values of perseverance and community strength early on. Motivated by her daughter and granddaughter, Jeanette embarked on a professional adventure, navigating a diverse range of industries and roles, from wholesale and retail in the meat industry to a pivotal position as a chemist in the sugar industry.


However, Jeanette truly found her calling within the realms of state government. As a logistics officer, contracts administrator, PMO coordinator, project manager, and program director, she refined her leadership, teamwork, and strategic thinking skills, laying the groundwork for her transformational work as a project professional.


In 2017, driven by a passion for innovation and equipped with insights from years of hands-on experience, Jeanette introduced The Project Ecosystem ® - a revolutionary framework designed to empower organisations and individuals to achieve their goals with precision and purpose. This transformative framework has since become the cornerstone of her practice, guiding her interactions with clients and shaping her problem-solving approach. It's a testament to the power of one person's vision to bring about significant change. Earlier this year, she released her first book, "Real Project Leadership: The Proven Recipe for Project Teams to Have Real Impact".


As an Activator and Arranger, with Individualisation, a Relator, and driven by Responsibility, Jeanette brings a unique blend of talents and perspectives to every project she undertakes. Today, she joins us to share her insights, experiences, and wisdom, offering listeners a glimpse into the mind of a true visionary and catalyst for change.


So, without further ado, let's dive into the conversation and uncover the secrets to unleashing project potential with the one and only Jeanette Cremor.
Tune in to this enlightening episode and be inspired by Jeanette's journey of resilience, innovation, and leadership. Don't miss out on her valuable insights and practical advice on transforming projects and achieving excellence. Her strategies are not just theoretical, but practical and actionable, empowering you to make a real difference in your projects.
