This podcast features Kate Daly, Chief People and Communications Officer, Human Resources at Fletcher Building. Listen to how she has mastered the art of balancing multiple board positions, an esteemed global career in Human Resources and Communication, and being a mum to three kids.

“As you become older your emotional intelligence grows a lot and it becomes less and less about you, and more and more about the people around you… If you have five or six people in you team who all have very diverse points… essentially what you deliver is a far superior outcome to the business and ultimately to yourself. I always look for people that are better than me and have become comfortable in hiring people that are technically stronger than me.” – Kate Daly

This podcast explores Kate’s results driven behaviour, strong commercial mind-set and truly understanding a business and creating strategies that are sustainable.

Enjoy hearing from an Inspiring Mum – Happy Mother’s Day 2017!
