  • Summary

  • In this episode we have a special replay from our sister podcast, “Non Executive Director Insider Insights”, where you get to meet Non Executive Directors (NEDs) and go inside their boardrooms. Today we hear from Sanchia Aranda AM.

    Sanchia’s Professional journey began in nursing and developed into over 40 years of expertise in cancer control. At the time of this recording, Sanchia was a Board Chair for Scope Australia and Deputy Board Chair for the Victorian Comprehensive Cancer Centre Alliance.

    Sanchia firmly believes an organisation's purpose or mission as being the key driver of success. While financial gains are important, strong corporate social responsibility sets an organisation apart from its competitors.

    In this episode of Insider Insights, we explore:

    • The value in bringing the voice of beneficiaries into decision-making processes
    • How to better support diversity and capability in the boardroom
    • Mistakes executives make when volunteering for not-for-profit boards


    Listen to the episode to hear Sanchia's insights on how boards can prioritise the beneficiary's voice in the decision-making processes.

    “As a disability provider, how do we set the ambition for lived experience presence around the board table?” -Sanchia Aranda AM
