Engaging with the board is a critical skill for HR leaders — but navigating board dynamics isn’t always straightforward.

In this episode, we’re joined by Dr Juliet Bourke, a global authority on human capital, inclusive leadership and governance. With experience advising hundreds of organisations — including Apple, the UN and BHP — and a decade as a Deloitte Partner, Juliet brings rare insight into what boards expect from HR.

Whether you’re board-facing now or preparing for the future, this episode will help you sharpen your strategic edge.
