Autorenporträt

Cathy Burke has something unique and powerful to say about lead-ership and human potential.As the CEO for The Hunger Project Australia, Cathy rarely stays long in one place. She is equally at home drinking tea with women in their huts in India, as she is walking through small vil-lages with farmers in Africa, or addressing hundreds of business leaders about personal and cultural change. She is driven by her pas-sionate belief that people are capable of achieving anything - often against the greatest of odds. Cathy has received numerous accolades for her work on leader-ship, including winning the prestigious 2014 Westpac and Australian Financial Review 100 Women of Influence Award.Cathy is a sought-after speaker. Her insights, humour and deep compassion connect and resonate with people and organisations globally.When she is at home at Byron Bay, she loves eating mangoes, having fun with her family, listening to dirty rock and roll music and dancing in her lounge room.
