Join us in this episode of 'Rolling Through Negotiations' as we engage with the inspiring Suzanne Andrews, a proud Aboriginal Woman from the Jaru, Punaba and Bunal Bardi peoples of Western Australia’s North Kimberley region. Born in Broome she moved to Yarrabah in her early teens where she still now lives and works. Suzanne, currently leading the Gurriny Yealamucka Health Service in Yarrabah, shares her profound insights into community health and the intricacies of leadership within Aboriginal organisations.
Our discussion ventures into the essence of community service, shedding light on the unique aspects and gratifying nature of serving one's community, particularly in health and wellness. Suzanne's journey reflects her unyielding dedication, deeply rooted in her connection to culture and community. She shares how fishing, her personal passion, acts as a source of renewal, helping her remain connected and wholeheartedly committed to her work.
We explore the multifaceted negotiations involved in transitioning a health service from government to community control, a significant endeavour realised over two decades. Suzanne’s commitment to mutual benefit and understanding highlights her insightful negotiation in this landmark achievement.
Suzanne also delves into her spiritual path and the influence of her upbringing on her values and approach to service. Her narrative is a celebration of dedication, resilience, and unwavering commitment to community, offering profound insights for anyone engaged in negotiations and community leadership.
