After our brief hiatus, we are back with our Cross-Examining Cyber Director Series. In this series, we sit down with some of Australia's leading directors to discuss the challenges and opportunities facing boards in an increasingly complex cyber landscape.

In this episode, we cross-examine Anne Templeman-Jones, one of Australia's most accomplished business leaders and non-executive directors. Anne has served on the boards of Commonwealth Bank, GUD Holdings Limited, Worley Limited, and Blackmores (as Chair). She has also held board and leadership roles with Cuscal Limited, HT&E Limited, Pioneer Credit Limited, TAL Superannuation Fund… the list goes on. Anne is also passionate about technology and cyber security – what a combination!

In this conversation, Anne shares insights from her boardroom experience, including how directors can navigate emerging technology risks, approach cyber resilience, and balance governance with growth and innovation. Drawing on a career that has spanned multiple industries, Anne reflects on what makes an effective director and the lessons that boards can apply in an increasingly uncertain digital environment.

Thanks again for listening. This is Cross-Examining Anne Templeman-Jones. Here we go…

In Part 2 of our climate reporting series, we build on the themes from Episode 50 and shift the focus to what comes next.

As the first wave of disclosures has wrapped up, attention has turned to the next climate reporting cycles - particularly for June and September year-end companies. The question now is: what lessons can organisations take forward?

In this episode, we unpack key takeaways from the first round of sustainability reporting and explore how they can be applied in practice for future reporters. We also take a closer look at ASIC’s early observations and share our perspective on what these mean, and how companies can consider them going forward.

Welcome back to The Third Wheel. In this episode, we turn our attention to one of the new features of the annual reporting landscape: mandatory climate disclosures.

With the first wave of reporting now completed, we thought it was the perfect moment to pause and reflect. What’s working well? Where are organisations still finding their footing? And what challenges are starting to surface?

This episode kicks off a two-part series, where we explore early trends emerging from the first round of disclosures. We share our initial observations, highlight recurring hurdles or challenges, and point to areas where reporting is already showing real progress.
