I have known Kerry since she took on the role as CEO of Regional Development Australia on the Mid North Coast in 2016. What has impressed me about Kerry is her dedication and commitment to the role in what have been some very tough times. Kerry has always shown great leadership and creative problem-solving approaches. Kerry has shown great leadership and has inspired those around her and dedication to see things through.

Over more than 20 years my observation of Kerry’s practice in regional communities has evolved into one grounded in humility, deep listening, and co-design. Kerry has seen the gaps, the lack of consistency and poor support people in regional Australia experience. She focuses on bridging them by building strong relationships and creating space for Regional voices to lead. Her work brings together community members, service providers, government and businesses to collaborate in ways that are purposeful and respectful, even when trust has been broken in the past.

Personally and Professionally I have had a strong, sincere working relationship with Kerry over many years – Kerry does become invested in her projects, she is a great listener and advocate. She is a great people person, loves being engaged at the Grassroots level to gain a better understanding of the real issues, and develop with and alongside community the best way forward.
