Description

Welcome to Episode 4 of Stories Untold.


Annabelle Herd has shaped Australian culture from both the screen and the stage, with decades in media and now as CEO of ARIA. She’s a leader who believes that empathy is power, that soft skills aren’t weak, and that culture needs more than applause - it needs protection.
In this episode, she shares what she’s learned from a life in leadership, the expectations she’s shed, and why influence starts with how you make people feel.


• Why local culture matters, and what happens if we let it fade
• The truth about how your mindset shifts with experience
• Why credentials don’t define leadership, and vulnerability does
• Why gender equality in the workplace is still a work in progress, and what real progress looks like
• The joy of discovering new music (no matter your age)

If you've ever questioned what leadership could look like with more heart, this one’s for you.
