Can you tell us what you most liked about both roles and what was the most challenging?
8:12
So Standards Australia was something I'd known because I'd been there briefly in 97.
8:17
But for me, the thing that was really satisfying was the impact Australia had on the international standards world.

So we've got many areas of industrial capability that we then turned into standards that were best in the world.
8:36
So one of the really satisfying things was showcasing standards Australia's ability around technical standards.

And then the challenging side of that was getting anyone to understand about Standards Australia's role in sort of the economy, in industry, how we functioned.
8:57
that we were not a government agency, and that was something we held on tightly to so that we could be saying what's the right solution for industry and for the community and have the freedom to participate.
