In Episode 161 of the No Limitations podcast Follow Your North Star, Blenheim Partners’ Gregory Robinson speaks to Clare Pearson, Chief Executive Officer of Little Wings.

 

In a compassionate discussion, Clare speaks about the important mission of Little Wings, a charity which provides transport services for children with life-threatening illnesses in regional and rural areas, ensuring they get access to major metropolitan hospitals and healthcare facilities. Clare calls upon us all to act in the spirit of Christmas and the ethos of giving to those in need, whether through small or large donations, or as an individual or corporate donor, especially as charities require greater funding in order to keep pace with the rapid increase in demand for their services. Lastly, Clare shares some valuable lessons she has learned as both a charity and organisational leader and unveils her leadership philosophy, which is centred around self-belief, benevolence and teamwork.

 

Clare started her career as a Child Protection Case Worker with the Department of Family and Community Services in New South Wales, before becoming an Executive Manager at Children First in Sydney. Thereafter, Clare moved into senior executive roles, first as the Chief Executive Officer of Project Future, working against human trafficking, before becoming the Chief Executive Officer of Little Wings. Clare has also served on a number of Boards including Share Care Incorporated, Bobby Goldsmith Foundation, Allevia Disability Services, Bankstown Sports Club, and Southern Cross University.

In Episode 160 of the No Limitations podcast Discipline is a Price Worth Paying, Blenheim Partners’ Gregory Robinson speaks with David Moffatt, Chairman of Ventia Services Group Ltd.

 

In a lively conversation, David offers a refreshing perspective about the future of business in Australia, challenging the pessimism that often dominates Boardrooms regarding innovation, productivity and growth. He encourages us to focus on the tremendous potential and opportunity that this country has to offer, but also stresses that better policies need to be in place to attract capital and foreign investment. He adds that as a society, we must value the concept of mastery if we are to unleash top talent and thrive as a global economy. David also asserts that businesses must take a proactive approach to risk management, particularly as the shifting geopolitical landscape continues to redefine how we think about energy security, cybersecurity and Artificial Intelligence. Finally, David shares his greatest learnings throughout his global career as a Chief Executive Officer (CEO), as well as key defining moments that have shaped his leadership philosophy.

 

David’s early career included serving as the CEO of General Electric (GE) and GE Capital Australia and New Zealand. In 2001, he was appointed to the Board of The Foxtel Group as a Director and Chair of the Finance Committee. At the same time, David took on the role of Chief Financial Officer at Telstra Group Ltd, before being promoted to Group Managing Director – Consumer. In 2012, David was appointed as CEO of Lebara Mobile, based in the United Kingdom, and became Founding Chairman – Australia of American tech care company Asurion. In 2015, David joined Ventia Services Group Ltd as Chairman and served as the Group Chief Executive who led the acquisition of Broadspectrum Australia and New Zealand. Currently, David is also the Chairman – Australia and New Zealand of Apollo Global Management, Inc., and the American Chamber of Commerce in Australia.
