Board Roles

I serve as an Independent Director for Silver Chain Group, a State Council Member for the Australasian College of Health Service Managers (SA), and a Development Committee Member for Adelaide Contemporary Experimental (ACE), contributing my expertise in healthcare, governance, stakeholder and government relations, and strategic development to drive impactful outcomes across these sectors.

I am actively seeking board roles where I can contribute my expertise in governance, strategy, leadership, and sustainability. With experience as an independent non-executive director and a strong track record in mentoring executives and boards, I bring a balanced, forward-thinking approach to decision-making.

I am particularly interested in organisations committed to innovation, diversity, and sustainable growth, where I can add value through strategic insight, governance, financial management, sustainability, risk management, and stakeholder engagement.

Testimonials

What a legend .. I love Di’s no-nonsense approach to work and life.

Saying yes to opportunities and being adaptable were the key take-outs for me.

Also drawing on the “let them” approach is a good reminder. 🙂

- Carol Sheahan

So many great lessons in Di’s words of wisdom. In addition to the 45 second rule, here were a few other favorite take aways:

• Dealing with Imposter syndrome – address fear through action
• Improve by 2% each week – work towards your goal
• Believe in you – confidence will get you so far, but need to believe in yourself first ie: remove self-doubt

- Tiffany Sutton

It was inspirational listening to Di talk about her journey & is definitely someone to look up to.

I loved her authenticity and vulnerability opening up about her life and challenges she has faced in her path through leadership.

- Rachelle Guillard

Di has a practical approach to work and issues that is refreshing and helps build strong relationships between stakeholders.

Resolving complex situations was easier when working direct with Di

Thanks
Keith

- Keith Buet

I’ve had the pleasure of working both alongside and with Di since the opening of the new Royal Adelaide Hospital.

Di is collaborative, open and honest- she displays thoughtful and effective leadership of both her teams but just as importantly, those adjacent, outwards and upwards.

No ego, no games, just focused on positive outcomes for patients, the community and the environment.

- Mark Chilvers
