Ms Sue Renkin

Managing Director, Intuitively Focussed P/L; CEO, Open Family Australia Inc; Chair, Monash Centre for Synchrotron Advisory Board

Sue has held general management/chief executive appointments since 1984. Most recently she enjoys joint appointments as a CEO of a not for profit organization together with running her own management consultancy.

After a short career in nursing, Sue moved into hospital management in 1983, and held CEO appointments in the hospital sector until 1998. Sue’s past three CEO positions have required a strong focus on restructuring organisations to improve profitability and business growth. This success in turning organisations around has been achieved through business development, motivational leadership, change management, brand development and strategic vision. In 1997 Sue was awarded the Telstra Business Woman of the Year Award for the private sector with more than 100 employees in both Victoria and then again for Australia.

Sue achieved her MBA from Monash University in 1995 and has since studied Strategic Management at Harvard University in USA.

 In addition to her other roles she has also been actively involved in government lobbying for a period and is currently Prime Minister’s representative on Australian Bravery Council.
