    Dec 11 2023

    Getting to the end isn’t good enough. Whether it’s to the end of the year, the end of a restructure, or the end of a transformation project. It’s not about transactions and checklists. It’s about how you lead.

    In this episode, we discuss:

    • What’s more important than just getting to the end result

  • Sacred Heart Mission CEO, Hang Vo on pacing your passion for stronger leadership
    Dec 4 2023

    Being a passionate leader is an outdated goal. In fact, trying to run your team on passion alone is akin to running a team on adrenaline. It’s just not sustainable. And it can get in the way of strong leadership.

    This is what we talked about with Sacred Heart Mission CEO, Hang Vo on our Top Five Movement Leading Generous Teams podcast this week.

    Within a second of meeting Hang, you know she’s a passionate force but Hang shares how she’s learnt to pace her passion as a CEO, because not everyone is encouraged and motivated by it alone.

    As a self-diagnosed passionate leader, Hang shares how she keeps her passion in check as a CEO, because not everyone is encouraged and enthused by passion.

    Hang has decades of experience in the for-purpose sector leading national and international services. Prior to joining Sacred Heart Mission, Hang was CEO of Whitelion Youth where she led the national organisation through transformational change and the COVID pandemic. Before this, she held various leadership roles at Australian Red Cross and EACH Social and Community Health.

    In March 2023, Hang was elected as the President of the Australian Council of Social Service (ACOSS) where she previously served as Member of the Board and Vice-President. Hang is currently also Board Director with Respect Victoria, a statutory agency focused on family violence primary prevention. From 2021 to 2023, Hang also worked as the Chair of the Victorian Pride Centre.

    Having come to Australia as a part of the Vietnamese refugee ‘boat people’ seeking asylum in the late 1970s, Hang has first-hand experience of dislocation and exclusion which drives her deep commitment to creating a more just, inclusive, and equitable society.

    In this episode, we discuss:

    • How Hang fuels and engages her team.
    • How to redirect your leadership from passionate and adrenaline fuelled  to connected and curious.
    • Insights into techniques for resetting + recharging leadership

    Nov 27 2023

    We work with a lot of teams in crisis. And where leaders are blindsided by incident after incident, we see the opportunity for people to find a performance edge and not miss the leadership lessons this crisis will bring.

     We discussed how Kel has captured the leadership lessons after years of leading teams through issues and crises.
     
     With more than 15 years’ experience in managing crises and communications for leading global organisations, Kelly currently leads the veterinary business for Australia & New Zealand. This includes managing health outcomes for pets and partnering with organisations to improve the long-term sustainability of the people working in the veterinary industry.


    In this episode, we discuss:

    • How Kel fuels and engages her team and industry
    • The one thing Kel does to ensure she never misses a leadership lesson
    • Insights into techniques for resetting + recharging leadership
