In this episode Steven talks with Julia Chambers CMInstD  who is Chair of Humble Bee ltd, a company focussed on replacing petrochemical plastics with bio-plastic substitutes. She is also a non-executive director on Lincoln Agritech Limited.Working in the start-up sector, Julia found herself shoulder-tapped to join boards. One of her big learnings was to continue to be true and to “honour the things that are important” when she moved into the boardroom.“The rate of change is accelerating,” she says, challenging directors to reflect on their personal suitability for board roles in the modern world. “If it’s not you anymore, then step aside and let someone else fill that seat. The boards I am involved with, I tell you, we are really precious about those seats and who sits in them because of the impact that having the right person, the right team, can have.”Julia Chambers is a Chartered Member of the Institute of Directors.Connect with Julia: linkedin.com/in/julia-chambers-04a3471/Find out more about the Advanced Directors Course:https://www.iod.org.nz/governance-courses/advanced-directors-course-2/Find out more about the Institute of Directors: https://www.iod.org.nz/  Hosted on Acast.
