Celebrate International Women’s Day (this Sunday) with a deep dive into the senior ranks of Australian business as Phil talks with Anastasia Clarke, CFO of property group Charter Hall. Despite recent reports suggesting a decline in female finance chiefs, Anastasia offers a refreshing and candid perspective on her rise to the top, discussing the "grit and determination" required to navigate an ASX-listed career and the pivotal male mentorship that supported her along the way. From the challenges of balancing a high-stakes career with young children to the strategic shift of moving women into revenue-focused roles, this episode explores why diversity of thought isn't just a social goal—it's a driver of Charter Hall’s leap to $92 billion in funds under management. Whether you're interested in the future of the commercial property market or the "40:40:20" approach to executive leadership, this conversation is an essential listen for anyone looking to understand the modern blueprint for corporate success.
