Overcoming Challenges: lessons from an aged care leader

from Governing for Reform Hosted by Governing for Reform

‘We've got to keep going forward, we've got to keep improving, looking for new ways of doing things, because we're creating an industry that will care for people in the future. And that is really important.’ This episode will explore the role of aged care leaders in governing through a period of change and various challenges, to create growth and opportunities to improve the sector. This episode features Jennifer Lawrence who is an experienced governing body member and executive. She was the recent CEO of the Brightwater Care Group, where she led the strategic direction and operational management of the organisation through periods of change and challenge. Leaders in the aged care sector have been required to step up and demonstrate their preparedness, resilience and leadership more than ever. The Royal Commission into Aged Care Quality and Safety, natural disasters and the COVID-19 pandemic are a few examples of events that had a significant impact and strain on the sector. The experience of every leader will be different. But in sharing knowledge and the experiences, these leaders have an opportunity to come together with renewed focus on improving the future of aged care.
