Today on the Take on Board podcast I’m speaking with Kate Larsen about what boards needs to think through in commenting on the war in Gaza.

Kate joined the board of Western Australia's youth arts peak membership organisation, Propel Youth Arts, when she was just 22 years old. Originally recruited for her marketing expertise, she was elected Chair after only a few meetings and helped lead the start-up organisation through its first few years of operation.  

Since then, arts, cultural and not-for-profit governance is a topic that she have approached from all angles – as a consultant, board member, CEO and senior manager, arts worker and independent practitioner reporting to boards, committees, steering groups and funding panels across a broad range of governance and business frameworks, including state and national peak bodies, tiny charities, multi-purpose arts centres and government departments. 

Kate Larsen is a writer, arts and cultural consultant with more than 25 years’ experience in the non-profit, government and cultural sectors in Australia, Asia and the United Kingdom. Kate is a thought-leader in the areas of governance and cultural leadership, workplace culture, online communities, and community-led practice.
