Today, on the Take On Board Podcast, I'm speaking with Cynthia Payne about health and aged care sector advisory boards.

Cynthia is on the advisory board for Pain Check and is also a director of the Mind Connections Foundation. She's previously been on the boards of the Heart Foundation, the National Peak Body, Lassa and the Blue Knot Foundation. Cynthia Payne is well known across many sectors. She has contributed to leadership roles for the past 33 years.

In 2018, she founded Anchor Excellence, a national consulting firm that today directly impacts over 45% of the entire aged care market through its range of products and services: Sage study tours, Anchor Consulting, Anchor Academy, impactful leaders, and Anchor Policy. The list goes on. Originally a registered nurse, Cynthia is a certified chair with the Wonderful Advisory Board Centre and a certified practitioner for team management systems.

She holds an MBA. Is a member of the Australian Institute of Company Directors, an FGIA, so a Fellow of the Governance Institute of Australia. And I love this, a yoga teacher. I love it when people have the little random asides.
