Ziena Jalil - Independent Director, Strategic Consultant and Diversity and Inclusion Advocate

Ziena Jalil has had a career of diverse roles where over time she was able to develop her own voice driven by a deep sense of purpose and passion (which you can definitely hear in her voice).  With a strong belief in fairness and equality she has learnt through generations of leadership in her family focused on integrity, hard work and respect.  As a young woman of migrant descent, a brown woman (as she describes herself) she has been extremely fortunate to have the senior roles that she has lead but always felt she had to work twice as hard to prove herself.  With a strong focus on making a difference, changing lives, giving others a voice and creating a meaningful life, her most important life role is that as a role model to her children.  She encourages our community to be that person who takes a chance on someone no matter their background or circumstance.
