Today on the Take on Board podcast I’m speaking with Carol Schwartz about Board dynamics, culture, risk, strategy and the role of The Chair. 

Carol is on the boards of Reserve Bank of Australia, Trawalla Group and Chair of EQT Holdings Limited, Climate Council, Trawalla Foundation and the Women’s Leadership Institute Australia 

She has previously been on the boards of Stockland, Bank of Melbourne, Australian Chamber Orchestra, Melbourne International Arts Board…….too many to name! 

Carol Schwartz has a diverse career across property, the arts, finance, investment, entrepreneurship, government and health. Carol has been recognised for her leadership via a range of honours including her 2019 appointment as an Officer of the Order of Australia, 2020 Leading Philanthropist Award by Philanthropy Australia, an Honorary Doctorate from Monash University, induction into the Australia Property Hall of Fame, and a Centenary Medal. Carol has been a passionate advocate for gender equality and women in leadership, and as, she has catalysed a range of initiatives to grow the critical mass of women in politics, business and the media. 

So it won’t surprise you to hear that Carol was also featured in the Broads on Boards Powerhouses chapter because, as you can tell, she is also, well a powerhouse! We’ll make sure we put a link to that episode, and the series, in the show notes.
