Gail Kelly - common sense and civility

Today is the 100th International Women’s Day.

One woman amongst the many making their mark is Gail Kelly, the Chief Executive of Westpac, one of Australia’s 4 biggest banks. She was recently ranked as the most powerful woman in the Asia-Pacific by Forbes.

You can find out more about Gail here and here.

It has not been Gail Kelly’s fame, fortune or standing that has made me sit up and take notice however, rather the common sense and civility she displayed on the ABC television show Q & A on 7th March.

You can watch the full episode here.

What place do common sense and civility have in your business?

I think they are vital for success and sadly they are lacking all over the world.

I salute Gail Kelly for daring to be different.

Be the difference you want to see in the world
