"The only moment we ever really have is this one - celebrate it. Happiness isn't in the future or the past but in the awareness of the present." - Anna McPhee
Anna's words are how she lived her life. She has been an amazing inspiration, a wonderful support, a gracious mentor to me throughout my career. So many of us counted her as a girlfriend to look up to, and her legacy will live on in the many women she has inspired to live their very best life.
I will miss her.
Sending condolences to Reggie, Anna's beautiful mum Trish and adoring sisters, and all of her extended family.

Are expectations changing on executive remuneration?
I wrote this post to explore some contrasts in executive rem between the public service, private sector, charity and membership associations.
A few observations:
- The CEO of Australia Post earned $5.6m last year, a figure our Prime Minister declared was "too high".
- The top five executives of Australia Post earned more than $1.25m each.
- the Commonwealth Bank was the first big four bank to have a "first strike" recorded last year against its executive remuneration and this has been credited for the "tough stance" taken in the fallout of the latest compliance scandals there (we shall see).
- Very few charities report their CEO salaries. Why the secrecy when these organisations exist purely through the trust and generosity of their supporters?
- Not-for-profit membership associations have been in the spotlight lately for their exec remuneration. Is it what members expect? For example:
- The now-terminated CEO of accounting membership association CPA Australia was paid $1.8m in 2016.
- The incoming CEO of competitor membership association Chartered Accountants Australia and New Zealand is earning $750,000 plus potential bonus of up to 33%, (meaning Mr Ellis can earn just shy of $1 million).
- The incoming CEO of membership body Australian Institute of Company Directors is earning $525,000 (including superannuation) plus potential bonus of up to 40% (meaning Mr Armour can earn up to $735,000)
Fair game or fairly gamed?
Before you form an opinion, consider this:
- Full-time earnings in Australia currently average A$80,236 per annum; or $83,616 if overtime and bonuses are included.
- Salaries for degree-qualified Australian public school teachers begin at $66k and the highest paid principals responsible for the largest schools in the system earn up to $160k. For shaping future generations.
- Salaries for degree-qualified registered nurses in public hospitals start at $60k and the highest paid surgeon in an Australian public hospital gets paid $240k per annum. For saving lives.
- The Prime Minister of Australia earns a salary of $522k. For steering the country.
So what are your expectations of executive salaries? In your industry? Or in other sectors you support? Do they inspire you or ire you? Or send you completely postal?
I'd love to hear your opinions on this, are our expectations changing?

It was a rare moments of bipartisan consensus. Australia’s Prime Minister Turnbull declared the $5.6m pay packet of Ahmed Fahour, then-CEO of Austra...
Integrity. It's what i've been fighting for over the past 4 months, on behalf of CPA Australia members. Here's an insight on why the board had to go. So... what does integrity mean to you?
They won. But CPA Australia's rebels are not happy

CPA Australia is saying sorry. That isn't enough for the rebel accountants who forced out CEO Alex Malley.
For the record, I stand with Amanda Vanstone #loveislove
For the record, I'll be voting 'yes'

In one very real sense the upcoming vote to allow, or not, same sex marriage isn't about that at all.
Penny Wong there are conservative voters (with a little c) who stand with you on this one. These statements by a so-called Christian lobby are abhorrent. An absolute disgrace on our government to allow children in same sex families to be referred to as stolen. These are children, who are wanted so much their parents have been through hell to have them. They are more than loved, they are cherished and nurtured and deserve to be left out of this dreadful plebiscite debate. Enough is enough. #loveislove

You talk about unifying moments? It is not a unifying moment. It is exposing our children to that kind of hatred.
