In Leadership Revelations III, Avril Henry shares insights from successful women on unfair treatment, myths that surround women at work and practical strategies for creating gender equality for women and men.

In Issue 10.7, Human Capital Magazine published a special report on learning and development and retention and interviewed Cassandra about these practices at Pottinger.
Cassandra Kelly says: "Pottinger is seeking to build careers, not just skills. So our development program extends beyond technical knowledge." "We've always said that we need to look first at reputation, then at relationships and only thirdly at results if we want to have good long term measures of whether we are succeeding." |
In V.126 N.2, InFinance spoke to leading financial services firms about what they are doing to improve Australia's productivity and featured Cassandra Kelly and Pottinger.
Cassandra Kelly says: "We founded the business with the view we would make hiring and firing decisions based on integrity and ability. Really good staff want both and our view is that you don't have to put aside your ethics to do interesting work." "You have to remember people are individuals, they know different things and some people pick up information faster than others." |
