From Perth to Sydney, Boston, Hong Kong, and back again, Michele offers a treasure trove of insights on navigating diverse cultural landscapes while effectively managing and influencing within powerhouse organisations like State Street Bank and Trust. She shares her firsthand experiences of blending in and standing out in different markets, and how understanding organisational dynamics can be the key to a successful transition.
